A shielded loop design is the best antenna type to reduce local noise
source pickup.


Where could I find a DA-5 and how much would it cost? I get sticker shock
when I look at Wellbrook loops..

At best, you'll have to look at eBay. They've been out of print for a
while. They're out there. Thousands of them. You just have to find them.

What did you pay for your unit? Did you buy it new?

I don't know where to get one of these. I don't think they are being
made anymore. The amplified small shielded loop design is comparatively
expensive to make.

This is another expensive one.

The next best and not as expensive is an external ferrite loop. This
design is not shielded but compact enough that local E field noise
sources effects are reduced. I don't know if anyone has tried one of
these yet.

This has been around for years and cost a little more.
