SoooOOOOOOoooo, before I make the investment in something like a Wellbrook active loop, I've been experimenting in magnetic transfer after MLB and MTA by RF Systems. At first blush, with first draft of a homemade MTA, I"ve noted dramatic noise attenuation 9db, with a signal loss of around 3db on most signals, which my receivers can more than compensate for. Interesting stuff Peter. Hope you are well! -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html |

Interesting stuff Peter. Hope you are well! Could be a lot worse. Could be in Milwaukee. As I get things in place, and work through the revisions, I'll put some audio comparisons together demonstrating the improvements. |

I've noticed that the MLB balun does an excellent job at reducing/eliminating
man-made noise. Whatever losses are present are more than compensated for by the increase in S/N level. 73s Ken Maltz Jericho, NY NRD-535D, NRD-220 Collins R-388, Racal RA6790/GM, ICOM R71A, ICOM R-7100(x2), AOR AR-8000 Panasonic RF-2200, Sony ICF-7600GR, Hoka Code3 Gold-Pro, 60' long wire, MLB balun |
