Interesting!
Can anyone of the experts comment on this concept?
After scrolling down through pages of text i just found a few photos.
The mechanical concept is clear.
But the author appears almost esoteric to me, like a guru of that
antenna, "
The best compact AM antenna in the world - ever!"
So it is said that 20 ferrite rods in that arrangement
perform 20 dB better than a single rod. OK, but how well performs such
a signgle rod? 20 dB is maybe not enough, compared to a well designed
single turn loop, which i have now. My goal is always LF/137, not MF
BCD stations or so. The advantage of the ferrite solution, if
sensitivity is sufficient to be well above the noise on a quiet day,
would be to be completely free in all /p sesions (without a car).
Would it be possible to reasonable simulate that antenna (not an
accurate model but rather an estimation)?
