I want something simple to make.
I'm thinking of better antenna(s) for the RCA superradio and a couple portable SW radios I have {-the RCA gets stations just fine, it mainly needs fine-tuning help-}. I did make a simple passive tuned loop for the SW out of a single turn of copper grounding rod and a AM radio tuner cap. Worked much better than the included antennas, but was 4 ft wide and not built real sturdy. If I do loops I want these to be smaller, maybe 1.5 or 2ft across so I can move them around and use them indoors easily. There is also the 13.5" stormwise monster ferrite sticks. They would be more compact than a loop, but for a small MW/SW recieving antenna, are these going to receive significantly better? ~ |
