Doug,

The "Torus-Tuner" is a 16" diameter antenna shaped in a "loop" shape;
it looks like a large "donut", and stands vertically in it's (wooden) base.

To answer your question, yes, it would work well with your shortwave
receivers. The output of the MFJ active antenna amplifier is a coaxial
output, but it would work just fine if you were to simply connect it right
to the whip antenna of either of your receivers.

I'll e-mail you with a few URL's which will give you additional info on
this loop antenna specifically, and some general info on loop antennas
for receiving applications in general. Then if you should have any other
questions, just e-mail me directly.

Thanks & 73,

I'm very interested in this antenna; I am new to world band listening
and have both a Sony 7600GR and Kaito KA2100. Would this antenna be
compatible/work well with either or both of these? If so, I'm pretty
sure I'll take it. Is it possible to send me a photo (to:
)? As I said, I'm new to this and would like to see
what it looks like.

Thanks.
