I have a station about 75 miles away that can be heard at the noise and the loop brought it up toĪn S-9 signal on the 750 and a 65 DBu and 40 DB SN level on the Tecsun. It was between just hearing a station right in the noise and Outdoors during daytime on the AM band the results were amazing on both radios. I used the clip lead connector for both radios and clipped the loop antenna to each radios whip antenna. For the Tecsun I used the ferrite bar coupler. I connected the output cable from the control unit directly to the Grundig 750 for BCB testing and couldĮasily A - B between the KA33 and the rotatable ferrite antenna on the Grundig. I tested the antenna both outdoors and indoors and used my Grundig Satellit 750 andĪ Tecsun PL-380 ultra light radio. To 1710 KHz and all shortwave bands from 3.9 to 22 MHz.ĭoes it work? Yes and surprisingly well I might add. The antenna covers the medium wave broadcast band 520 To hang the antenna, a ferrite bar coupler, and an antenna/ground clip lead connector, the loop antenna with a telescoping rod to spread theĪntenna into a diamond shape and attached to the loop is the amplifier/band selector. There is the control unit, a long connecting cable to go from the antenna to the control unit, a plastic clip and suction cup The antenna comes packaged in a box and a bubble pack I decided to try the Kaito KA33 active loop antenna for medium wave and short wave. As a radio enthusiast, I am always on the lookout for a better antenna.
I am as much a SWL and AM BCB Dxer as I am a ham radio operator.
