Hello Don and John: DXE has not measured the noise figure of the loop preamp yet, but we will soon and it will be posted on the part detail for the loop amplifier. https://www.dxengineering.com/parts

YES! and direct signal ingress into the feedline that often haunts us. I do have one recommendation about pattern distortion as follows. Check to make sure the peak and the null of the antenna are in

Hi Tim, Thanks, and I have gain vs frequency plot on my website for the DX Engineering preamp and my measurements agree with yours. The DX Engineering preamp designed for use my my portable flag is d

The link takes me to a page showing a unit with no display and no tuning knob, needing a computer to run it. I needed to follow a link on that page to find the self-contained unit. http://afedri-sdr.

Studying the fine print, the stand-alone unit needs either USB power or 7.5-10VDC. I've got a couple of 3 Ah Motorola-branded outboard cell phone battery packs that look like they could work with the

" The problem here is that any loop antenna inherently has a noise temperature of 300K, because it is lossy, and because it "sees" the earth" Would you elaborate on that? Small loop 1/10 of wave leng

The antenna in question is not a "loop" it is a terminated loop, the diagram is a cardioid, it is very broadband 1-10, like 1 MHz to 10 MHz or 3 o 30 MHz with the same irradiation diagram. The behav

Correction to my previous comment. I didn't realize that the mini-flag impedance is close to 50 ohms resistive at all frequencies of interest. Therefore, the 50 NF of any amplifier is also the NF tha
