[IRCA] Coupling External Antennas to Portable Receivers

["Kevin S" <satya@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all:

I just posted an article to DXer.ca and the Yahoo Ultralight Group sites
regarding how to feed an antenna output to a portable receiver that
doesn't have an antenna jack (or even to those that do).  Ferrite
couplers, winding wire around the radio, putting a coil on the receiver's
ferrite, and other methods are discussed and compared.  While I used
Ultralight receivers for the testing, the results apply to any portable
receiver with an internal ferrite antenna (i.e., most all of 'em!).

The article is in Section 6 of the Yahoo Ultralight Files section, while
the link to the DXer.ca site is here:
