Model 10 ferrite loop antenna delivers better AM reception to any receiver
or portable radio.
In addition works well with all vintage
Tube radios
Compact cabinet offers easy placement options
and adjustments for Peak AM performance
Model 10's
design profile:
Improved design over past commercial AM ferrite
antennas
Manufacturers used solid wire in there ferrite design.Model 10 uses
stranded or Litz wire that delivers additional gain across the frequencies.
This
is a directional passive NON amplified antenna.Aim for best signal .
Technical description:
1,Model 10 is a 7 inch
long solid ferrite rod litz copper coil loop.Antenna contained in a compact High-impact ABS plastic
black textured cabinet..
2,Polarization: Horizontal. Antenna was and is designed
to lay flat.Model 10 is a directional passive antenna (uses no electricity).
3,
Detachable 6ft Coax cable with new special twin lead wire adapter for all screw,post,push antenna terminals'.
For tuners with a AM coax jack,use a common coax cable direct.
4,Receives 550 to 1700
KHZs AM band.Local and distant stations.Also all international shortwave bands
5,Impedance
at 50 ohms.
6,Compact antenna ABS Plastic cabinet measures 13"long by 4/1/2 by 1"height.
7,For antique radios use the center wire of the cable only.Do not ground the antenna.
Note on 75 ohm Cable match twin lead transformers:
We found common twin
lead 75 ohm match transformers will reduce AM performance by 80%. They were designed for standard cable,off air TV and
FM frequency's.They will weaken your AM signal gain.
Antenna is used used as a closed loop
on most stereo receivers. For single antenna inputs found on many SW receivers,antenna is connected
with (1) side only.Both sides will ground (short out) the antenna blocking out all signals.
AM
DAY/NIGHT RECEPTION...
Distant AM reception does improve at night verses
day.Having a directional antenna can and does improve a weak station signal and reduce noise
Static
can be caused by power lines or weather.Station drifting can be caused by atmospheric conditions,aircraft,sun spots etc.
