Pixel Technologies "AM-2" Ultimate AM Broadcast Band Antenna
Using this antenna - 3 ft version: http://www.angelfire.com/mb/amandx/loop.html 12 turns #12 spaced .4 in. center to center apart w pickup loop 2 in. from main loop. Will not overload my SDR. Tunes approx. 380 kHz to 2.1 MHz - top freq. depending on how much coax you feed it with. I used # 12 because I already had 2000 ft. Cost about 15 bucks for wood and capacitor. If you buy an amplified loop make sure it has a gain adjustment or it will probably overload the radio. Jim(MI) Pretty sure Angelfire went bye-bye some time ago. I used to have a website there back in the day, but they closed all their sites, IIRC. It looks like its angelfire.lycos.com now but the web site link still checks out here as is. Jim All I get is a 404 error page. Here's a decent looking kit version of this type of loop: http://www.radiointel.com/review-amloop.htm http://www.mtmscientific.com Jim |
