I am not sure where my post went, so I am redoing this update. I e-mailed
Palstar the completed PC board design yesterday, so I should have some
prototype boards in the next couple of weeks or so.
I received the 5/8 inch diameter ferrites yesterday and woulnd up a LW and a
MW loopstick. They work better than anything I have seen so far.
In addition to that, the LW loopstick tunes from 90kHz to 580kHz, while the
MW loopstick tunes from 410kHz to 2500kHz.
I am very excited about this design!

Hi Pete.

saw your post on the Palstar group. can't wait. i'll
be inline with the rest. i may not be first, but i hope
to be in the top 5. any idea when this will be released?

Paul wants to have it ready for Dayton. I am not sure when full scale
production will start. Right now, I am working out the details of the
antenna enclosure. Should this antenna be tiltable? I never use that
function, but it seems as if many folks do.

Question - Should this Ferrite Rod Antenna be "Tiltable" ?

Thanks for the info..........it looks like this might be a good approach.
Features are always easier to implement in the early stages of the design. I
am going to take a look at some regeneration circuits.........this might
also be a good thing. The next thing will be the tropical band
loopstick.................
