[Lowfer] VLF help

[rick kirby]

Hi Stan,

 Im feeding the dc for the antenna right at the antenna itself .The signal
is sent through a xfrmr to the coax and then another xfrmr before it enters
the receiver/soundcard.There is no dc on the coax and the transformers keep
lots of the "junk" from coax. I have to thank Jay for that set-up!

Hello Rick,

Are you connecting the active antenna coaxial output directly to your PC 
sound card input ?

Thanks,     Stan, W1LE     Cape Cod    FN41sr
