Receiving Antennas for LW and MW Band

Figure 1 shows antenna made by participant of the forum with nickname XMAN. Antenna was wound on a ferrite rod from old transistor receiver. Above the rod it was placed copper foil. Foil has insulated Teflon film inside that prevented the foil to be closed. As XMAN wrote, the antenna gives very good receiving on LW and MW bands. The antenna was used as non- resonant, without tuning capacitor as it shown on Figure 7.

Other non- resonant ferrite loop antenna was described by participant with nickname 1428. Design of the antenna is shown on the Figure 2. Antenna was wound on a ferrite rod, it was Russian made ferrite rod marked as 3B1. As 1428 wrote, the antenna gives very good receiving on LW and MW bands. The antenna was used as non- resonant, without tuning capacitor as it shown on Figure 7.
