Hi Peter, Suggest you experiment ! Two short pieces of ferrite are never as good as one long one, as anyone who has ever fractured a rod will know. I don't know of any "magnetic glue" which will join
Take a look at the Long Wave Club of America's web site and try their message board.. ISTR that one of their members built a monster ferrite rod antenna some years ago, http://www.lwca.org/ 73s Trace
Dear Peter, LF Group, It is certainly possible to produce a ferrite rod antenna with increased output by having multiple rods side-by side/end to end, but it has to be quite big to compete with the u
Peter - I have had good results by gluing these together at the ends with regular thin CA ('crazy glue') and then bundling them together and staggering the end joints. I have one that is 22" in lengt

I have a box of probably that many somewhere-but need to find it first! <g> 73 Dave, ZL3FJ Does anyone know of a reasonably cheap source of large Ferrite Rods for LF/MF up to a MHz or so? eg approx 0
Hi Julian, long rods are difficult to come by in small quantities. Rapid Electronics have 100mm long rods diameter is around 10mm I think P.No 88-3098 38p ea. in 25s They also have a longer rod with
