Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Giuseppe Morlè, who shares the following antenna project:
Dear Thomas and Friends of the SWLing Post,
I’m Giuseppe Morlè from Formia, central Italy on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
After the DICA prototype I created another one called DICA 2 The Revenge!
This other minimal antenna works differently from the prototype. It is shorter, has 3, 12 cm ferrites inside and has the sensors soldered inside in reverse on the telephone cable strap. It works coupled to a metal surface because it uses magnetic induction unlike the prototype.
In the videos you can see the differences between the prototype and the DICA 2…
and the yield on the highest ranges.
This small minimal antenna can tune listening from 3.5 to 30 MHz.
Thanks to you and greetings to all the Friends of SWLing Post.
