Having noticed some recent comments on this reflector that disparaged
active whip ("e-probe") antennas as effective VLF/LF receive antennas, I
must respectfully disagree.

Unless you live in a very QRM quiet envirnoment, I don't think you can do
much better at LF than a good quality active whip, located away from noise
sources and trees/buildings, and shielded by common mode chokes.
