The "Green" Antenna for AM/MW Radio Reception plus Shortwave Too !
MH - You Got It Right ! ![]() 'The so called "Green" Antenna is a Solar Powered Un-Tuned Ferrite Rod Active Antenna for AM Radio Listening. An with my Cambridge Soundworks CD740 Radio which really was a very poor AM Radio -very week AM Radio reception. The "Green" Antenna made it Come-A-Live with AM/MW Radio across the Dial (AM Band). The Cambridge Soundworks CD740 Radio -COMES ALIVE- With The "Green" Antenna http://www.google.com/group/rec.radi...8766491f8ef898 May not 'help' the Eton E1 Radio on AM/MW as much as it did the DEAF the Cambridge Soundworks CD740 Radio -but- it does allow you to locate the AM/MW Antenna next-to or just-out-side a Window and position it for your best AM/MW Reception. And for some AM/MW Radio Owners and Listeners : This may mean Hearing What You Want To Hear On The AM/MW Band -or- Turning-on-the-TV ! QUESTION : WHAT IS THE "GREEN" ANTENNA ? The TG35 is a Indoor AM {Medium Wave} Shortwave and Longwave Active Antenna. GREEN = http://cgi.ebay.com/_W0QQitemZ140065562744 The TG35 Active Antenna can be used for AM {Medium Wave} Broadcasting Band reception. The TG35 Active Antenna has the frequency coverage from : 30 kHz to 30 MKHz using two Plug-In Actenna Elements : * Ferrite Rod Element for the AM {Medium Wave} Band Frequency Coverage : 520 kHz to 1710 kHz plus Longwave * Short Whip Antenna Element for the Shortwave Band Frequency Coverage : 3.0 MHz to 30.0 MHz QUESTION : WHAT MAKES IT "GREEN" ? The TG35 Active Antenna has a 500mAh Ni-MH 'rechargeable' Battery built into the Antenna, this can be 'recharged' by the Solar Cell that is also built into the Antenna. GREEN = http://cgi.ebay.com/_W0QQitemZ140065562744 - - - This makes the TG35 Active Antenna a "Green" Product. Plus - The TG35 Active Antenna can be recharge the Ni-MH 'rechargeable' Battery via the USB Port Connection of a PC. ANTENNA SIGNAL OUTPUT ? The TG35 Active Antenna uses a 1/8" (3.5mm) Stereo Plug as it's Out-Put-Connection. NOTE - THE TG35 ACTIVE ANTENNA IS AVAILABLE ON EBAY. i b 'green' with happiness - iane ~ RHF .. .. - - - In , - - - Mark Huss mhuss1@... wrote: - - The "Green" Antenna is an untuned ferrite rod antenna - with an amplifier. - Roughly equivellent to a six inch diameter untuned loop - antenna with a preamplifier. - - It is called "Green" because there is a solar panel built - in to power the preamplifier. I have not tried it, and it - does not look interesting enough for me to do so at the moment. - - I am concerned that an untuned ferrite core antenna has - too small an effective height to make much of an antenna. - - - .
