LP-1 AM PASSIVE LOOP ANTENNA
Description
The LP-1A can be used in cases when the field strength at the receiving location exceeds 30 or 40 mV at the lowest transmitter power employed. This loop is essentially untuned, but the number of turns is selected according to frequency. The output voltage of the LP-1 is approximately 1/30 field strength.
Since no isolation exists between the LP-1 and lead-in, it is recommended that the lead-in be limited to less than 100 feet to minimize tuning effects introduced by the cable. Both the amplified and unamplified Belar shielded loop antennas may be ordered for
