Improved E-field probe for VLF
Today I made an improved version of my VLF E-field probe. The first hi-Z FET input stage now an amplifier with an 8-9kHz tuned circuit in the drain. Sensitivity is now much better than before with strong Alpha beacon reception. It works well with the 80cm loop too and with the large TX loop in the garden via a step-up transformer. I'm looking forward to further tests by DK7FC and G3XIZ on 8.97kHz as my sensitivity is now better. I hope to test this out in the field with my 8.76kHz transmitter over the weekend.
