Minto,
as to DCF77:
my radio controlled Citizen wrist watch receives
DCF77 extremely reliably
every night with its built in ~2cm ferrite rod
antenna.
Even presently here at the Cote d'Azur field strength is
indicated as "high"
(the watch indicates three
grades:high,medium,low).
I find this amazing.

I haven’t thought about ferrite RX antenna for LF….My guess is
that it is not going to work – not without an external antenna coupled to the
ferrite, and then what’s the point?
DCF77 clocks often have trouble locking
indoors or in the neighborhood of ‘QRM’ generators like PC’s, and look what
power DCF77 is using…
I could be entirely wrong of
course…
