That antenna was designed to operate at about 100 khz. I doubt that you
would find it useful for about anything as it is. If you could get it
apart with wrecking it. You might put in a vertical dipole to use it for
2 meters or marine vhf.


IF the Loran Antenna has a Screw-in Whip that mounts to an Antenna
Coupler/Amp, and the whip is about 108" long, THEN the whip is a standard
CB Style 108" whip, commonly used for Loran reception, and is generic,
like ALL other 108" whip antennas. The thing that makes a 100 Khz
antenna for Loran-C is the Antenna Coupler, that the whip Screws into,
which has a 100 Khz Preamp, and filter built in.

Thanks to all for these helpful answers. The antenna looks like an 8"
fiberglass CB antenna with the screw-in ferrule at the bottom. There is no
direct connection to for a coax cable, nor was anything else included, just
the fiberglass whip.
