Review on πŸ”Š Enhance Your Audio Experience with Ancable Hi-Fi AM Loop Wire Antenna for Sharp/Panasonic Receiver Runer Audio Systems by Brock Chisholm

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Classic loop antenna

Many audio receivers do not have a built-in antenna. They often come with a loop antenna in the box, but if there isn't one or the original has been lost, this will work. All loop antennas are very similar, there are no magic loop antennas - if this one doesn't work, the others won't either. However, there are several variables. First is placement - if you have something blocking the signal, like a lot of metal in your building, a mountain range or whatever, you're out of luck. It may be helpful to move the loop to a different or higher position. Second, if the transmitter is very far away, the signal may be too weak. A larger loop antenna can help, and the best solution is to find a theme on the internet and DIY it. The three loop antennas are directional, so you'll need to rotate them until you find the best spot. It may be different for different stations. The fourth is interference from a stronger signal. A tunable loop antenna may or may not help. If you live too close to an airport, fire station or police station, you're out of luck. (If you live near an embassy or consulate, especially in Russia or China, forget about this.
