Dig out previously unreadable signals and track down annoying sources of interference with the MFJ-1886TRX HF Receive Loop

It gives you tremendous power to copy weak stations through impossibly strong levels of QRN or QRM. Covering AM broadcast through 30 MHz and beyond, its superbly directive element and bullet-proof low-noise preamplifier dig out buried signals normally lost when using wire antennas.

Unlike many ADF loops, the MFJ-1886TRX is weather-sealed, very ruggedly constructed, and mechanically stable under all weather conditions. In fact, you can mount it permanently on any inexpensive TV rotor and direct it from the comfort of your shack. It also installs easily on a tripod or handheld mast for portable use.

The key to the MFJ-1886`s superior performance is its balanced-input preamplifier. Dual MMICs operating in push-pull deliver an extremely low noise floor along with exceptionally wide dynamic range to handle overload from nearby transmitters. High-gain amplification and push-pull symmetry provide perfect electrical balance to ensure deep nulls and accurate directivity.

Mount it using standard U-bolts on any conventional mast (1-3/4 inch OD or smaller). All mounting hardware is provided. no external wiring is needed for remote installations. Simply use the Its Bias-T and MFJ-1312D plug-in AC supply that come with the loop. All you need is a 50-ohm feedline with PL-259 connectors to connect up the loop plus a short PL-259 jumper to connect your radio to the Bias-T. Everything else is included.

With ever-increasing interference from consumer devices and digital systems, amateur-band noise floors are rising and spurious signals seem to appear from nowhere. However, there`s no need to let increased QRN take the joy out of operating.
