Hello Alberto,

I have used a large coffee tin (30 cm high and 27 cm diameter), for a passive electric field probe. The capacitance was way to high for active circuitry. Instead a rf transformer wound on a hefty high mu toroid was used to couple the antenna to the coaxial feedline. It worked, though the bandwidth was restricted to LF and MF.

An other example is using a small diecast alluminium box (50 x 50 x 30 mm) with the buffer amplifier mounted inside.

73,
Roelof, pa0rdt
