lf in the west

[Frank Gentges KØBRA]

Jeff,

We are glad to see your interest in LF.  We have lots going on here and our 
LF converter design was published in the April issue of QST.  I happen to 
think it works pretty well.  Tim Brannon's design is also good.  Our 
article describes the differences between several LF converters including 
Tim's.

Try the converter with the AMRAD active antenna for some real 
performance.  You might want to borrow a good ham HF receiver after you get 
the active antenna and converter working together and see how much you 
might gain over your Sony receiver.  I suspect you might find an improvement.
