[time-nuts] Re: Loop Antennas

[John Magliacane]

 John,

Details on the air-core loop antenna I use for WWVB reception can be found here: https://www.arrl.org/files/file/QEX_Next_Issue/2015/Nov-Dec_2015/Magliacane.pdf

The associated pre-amp employs an instrumentation amplifier front-end to effectively "shield" the loop from E-field response. The connection made to the center-tap of the loop as indicated in the schematic really isn't necessary for proper performance.
