[Elecraft] directional antenna

[MC Carpenter]

yes I found several small loop antenna all good for 550 to 1600 kHz,  but to get good reception at the very low end is hard, at 150 to 281 kHz.  The navy might think I'm trying to bug their antenna system.

  Probably your best bet would be a loop, like those used for enhancing broadcast band reception.  You could probably find info on one for the broadcast band, and make the appropriate changes by calculating the dimensions for that lower frequency range.  Also, Palomar has a loop system that is pretty good, but don't know if one of their loops goes down that low.
