MFJ-1886 Loop Receiving Antenna

Decided to order the MFJ-1886 loop receiving antenna to have some fun experimenting on MF and HF bands.  I have been wanting to try out a loop antenna for years and the MFJ-1886 fit my requirements.

Requirements

  • Magnetic loop antenna design
  • Cover the medium wave broadcast band (525 kHz to 1705 kHz)
  • Cover the high frequency band (1700 kHz to 30 mHz)
  • Directional capability
  • Compact size
  • Weatherproof for outdoor use
  • SO-239/PL-259

Looking forward to giving the MFJ-1886 loop antenna a complete workout with MW DXing and shortwave listening.  Stay tuned for follow up articles.
