Anybody have a source of information on LORAN - C antenna design? Googling
hasn't turned up much at all.
Hi George,
Use a CB whip with matching.

As Richard noted, MOST Loran C Antenna Systems, are comprised of a
108" CB Whip and an Active Antenna Preamp specifically designed
for the 100 Khz Frequency and 100 Hz Bandwidth of Loran C Signals.
Usually it doesn't take much except a good narrow Bandpass filter
in front of a couple of Cascode JFets, to get a reasonable signal
level for the Units receiver, and normally, Notch Filtering, is
done at the Main Receiver and Controlled by the microcontroller
that runs the receiver, for interfering Pulse Signals.
