These weather-proof antennas are for solar flare and geomagnetic research applications. They are fully sealed and pre-tuned to a selected frequency. The frequency of 40 KHz is highly sensitive to solar flares.
You can match any receiver's antenna input resistance from 10 ohms to 300 ohms by simply wrapping a few turns around the center of the antenna (see photo above). You will see the signal strength will max out when proper match is achieved, signal will not increase with added turns beyond the match point.
Antennas offer high sensitivity and narrow bandwidth.
Directional to help reduce interference and zero-in on desired signal.

* The 60 KHz antenna is of wider band than the WWVB transmission so it is -NOT- suitable for the time signal reception.
NOTE: These antennas are bi-directional having a 'figure 8' pattern. 8' pattern.
NOTE: These antennas have NARROW bandwidth giving them a sharp ringing effect and are not suited for wideband casual listening to TWEEKS and WHISTLERS, but are for research and monitoring a narrow slice of spectrum at their frequencies.
These weather-proof antennas are for solar flare research, lightning detection, and geomagnetic research applications. They are fully sealed and pre-tuned to a selected frequency.

The frequencies of 40 KHz - 60 KHz are highly sensitive to solar flares. 60 KHz antenna not suited for reception of WWVB time signal station antenna is wider band than the time signals.
The frequencies of 10 KHz - 20 KHz are useful for global lightning detection. Monitoring the constant static level allows detecting solar flares because the static levels will suddenly drop out or increase depending on the type of solar event.
The frequencies of 6 KHz to 9 KHz are useful for hemisphere wide lightning detection at night time. Daytime range is less than 1000 miles.
The frequencies of 3 KHz to 5 KHz are useful for hemisphere wide lightning detection at night time. Daytime range is less than 300 miles.
The frequency of 1.8 KHz is the lowest frequency radio wave that will propagate in the Earth-Ionosphere cavity. This frequency is the lowest ringing sound you hear in the "Tweeks". 1000's of miles range after midnight local time. 100 miles range daytime.
The wavelength of the frequency of 1.0 KHz is too big to propagate in the Earth-Ionosphere cavity. Reception comes via local thru the air out to 30 miles. Reception over 100 miles away is through conduction by the ground only.
The frequency of 300 KHz is useful for detecting lightning. Range increases to over 500 miles at night.

We monitored WWVB on 60 KHz and also placed a solar cell outdoors during the eclipse on August 21, 2017 and got these results here by using a computer and a data logger. This is the type of research that can be done with antennas in this frequency range. We used a 22 inch long experimental version of the above antenna. We were able to see the effect the eclipse had on the propagation of LF radio signals. The signal strength increased near the time of maximum coverage. Here we saw about 75 percent of the sun covered, it was a partial eclipse for us. As the moon blocked the sunlight the voltage on the solarcell --decreased-- and the signal strength at 60 KHz --increased-- (We inverted the data so they would fit together in the chart above).

Bring back receiving power to your antique Long Wave radios! No wire connection or modification needed, simply place the radio near the tuned antenna for greatly increased signal strength. No batteries needed. The tuned antenna captures the radio waves and transfers them to your radio's built-in barcore antenna.
Simply place the radio near the antenna, adjust variable capacitor to tune in station for a great boost in reception strength.
For 50 ohm match wrap 2 or 3 turns around the tuned up antenna. For 300 ohm match wind 8 or 9 turns around the center of the tuned antenna.
