VLF/HF Loop Antenna
Hi Mike, If you are planning to use the head unit of the Loop Antenna Amplifier with a SDRPlay receiver you will probably be better off with the HF/VHF version as the head unit has a higher gain. I ca

Active Loop Upgrade
There is no need to modify any of the HF Active Loop antennas. The head unit amplifier of the HF/VHF version of the Loop Antenna Amplifier is almost identical to that in the HF Active Loop antenna. Re

Broadband Active Antenna (experience, test, comparison)?
Hi Ondrej, The Broadband Active Antenna has two wideband antenna elements with a very low noise amplifier directly at the antenna feed point so there is no feeder loss before the amplifier. This gives
