I use a T2FD antenna for MW reception, I have also a medium wave loop and
and MLB 1 but the last 2 are not better most of the times, the T2FD is used
for reception between 3-35 MHZ, but It is also very good in the mediumwave
band.
>From DX'ers wich have experience: after the beverage antenna, the T2FD is
one of the best antennas for mediumwave reception,O.K. It gives poor
signal strength, but also with very little noise, most of the times
good for a clear Id when conditions well enough!
