Pull In That Station Right Out Of The Noise! - Outstanding results from 500 KHz to 15 MHz
- High-Q Ferrite Rod antenna with Faraday shield eliminates noise from power lines, light dimmers, most static crashes, and more!
Read the Manual for this product (.pdf format) This antenna responds only to the magnetic field of the desired station and ignores the electrostatic field where most interference is found. It does a remarkable job pulling in stations lost down in the noise of powerline crud, fluorescent lamp buzz and light dimmer hash. Plus it's very directional, able to null strong stations on the same or nearby frequencies! We developed this antenna to pull in WGR, a 250 watt nighttime station 75 miles away, so we could listen to Buffalo Bills talk radio during the night. You can imagine all the powerline and equipment noise we have here at the factory. So, we came up with this ferrite rod, varactor tuned active antenna that's Faraday shielded - it only responds to the magnetic field - and boy does it do the job! Designed to cover the AM broadcast band, but includes details on building for any frequency range up to 15 MHz; it works gang-busters on Shortwave. Works indoors or out, contained in rugged PVC pipe with a single RG-59 coax cable connector. Operates with up to 500 feet of coax cable (you supply) between antenna assembly and control box (size: 5" x 5 1/4" x 11/2"). Includes all parts, matching case set and precut PVC materials. Operates on external 120 VAC power adapter that is included. Antenna is 9 1/2" x 9" long, L-Shaped 1" pvc pipe with end caps. (It worked just great to listen to the Bills players explain for 4 straight years why they lost the Super Bowl!)
