APPLICATION INFORMATION
The BCL 1-KA active receiving antenna is especially suitable for receiving of
broadcast radio stations in the long wave, medium wave, short wave and FM
(88 -108 MHz) radio bands.
However, as the whole frequency range from 10 kHz to 110 MHz
is covered, the BCL 1-KA is also suitable as general purpose receiving
antenna throughout the whole range.
Several advantages can be gained by using an active antenna instead of an
ordinary wire antenna, especially in the lower frequency ranges. Firstly, the
small physical size makes the active antenna much easier to install.
Secondly, a wire antenna requires a matching unit which typically has
narrow bandwidth, making retuning necessary when changing listening
frequency.
The active wideband antenna BCL 1-KA is optimized throughout the whole
covered frequency range. Thus, no tuning is required, making change of
listening frequency much easier.
Considering that the active antenna yields signal to noise ratios and signal
strengths normally only obtainable with much longer wire antennas, the BCL
1-KA makes a good choice, especially also with respect to economy.
