Default AM antenna problems

writes


somebody else mentioned overloading with an active antenna....this is
central London so there are all kinds of local AM stations....what kind
of damage can be done??


In London, I think the only two main medium wave transmitter sites are
Brookmans Park and Crystal Palace (although I do see a 200 watt 'London
Turkish Radio' in Lea Bridge Road - and there may be one or two others).

However, with luck, you are unlikely to find a MW transmitter next door
to your house - and certainly not a really high-powered one.

Adverts for commercial remote active antennas seem few and far between
on Google. However, you might find these of interest. The Wellbrook loop
seems promising. The nulls might be useful, but for all-round coverage,
you'll need to rotate it.
