PAR EFL-SWL Antenna, and Inverted-L Antenna Questions
 

Robert 11 and Telamon,

I was waiting for Dale Parfitt [W4OP] to reply to this Question.
FWIW - I have a Par EF-SWL Antenna setting right next to me
in the box as I Write : More about your Questions and Details
about the Par Electronics EF-SWL Antenna in the next post.

This may be of some interest concerning the Par Electronics
End-Fed Shortwave Listener's EF-SWL Antenna.

The Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener's EF-SWL Antenna
is a very good Shortwave Listening (SWL) Antenna and I recommend
it to any one who wants to get good results right out of the box by
simply adding Coax Cable and a Ground.

ABOUT USING - The Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener EF-SWL Antenna : In-the-Attic ?
 

Robert 11,

The Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener EF-SWL Antenna
will work in your Attic. And the Inverted "L" Antenna configuration
is generally a good choice to use with a the Par EF-SWL Antenna
for a "Low Noise SWL Antenna" using the 'design concepts' that
were popularized by John Doty.

Often enough I have written {Fingers On Automatic Typing}
CONSIDER BUILDING A "LOW NOISE" ANTENNA:
Try building an Improved SWL Random Wire Antenna that uses a
9:1 Matching Transformer (Balun / MLB) then you may not see
any real 'improvement' in your receive signal.
This is the so called "Low Noise" SWL Antenna.

ABOUT THE "LOW NOISE" ANTENNA 'DESIGN CONCEPTS':
A Random Wire Antenna Element coupled via a 9:1 Matching
Transformer at the Near-End of the Antenna with a Ground
Rod and Coax Cable Feed-in-Line to the Receiver. This is
the basic SWL Antenna that uses the "Low Noise Antenna"
'design concepts' that were {popularized} by John Doty.

From OP: Thanks All. ABOUT USING - The Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener EF-SWL Antenna : In-the-Attic ?
 

Hi,

Just a quick thank to all, for the replies and info.
Appreciate it.

Happy Holidays,
Bob
