    Stations for Ham- and Natural-Radio:

    • For Natural Radio I use several Antennas:
    a) Square with 4 m² and 4x2 turns
    b) Square with 2 m² and 70 turns
    c) Ferrite Antenna with 1000 turns on a 30 cm long ferrite with a diameter of 2.5 cm
    d) Long wire 52 m long, 8 to 5 meters above ground
    e) Earth loop with 7 turns
    Receivers for Natural Radio:
    a) several amplifiers with OP's and Transistors or FET's
    b) several computers with Soundcards including a Laptop with an excellent soundcard
    c) several software
    d) receiver system from 9.1 kHz ... 245 kHz with Ferrite Antennas (mainly to receive 16 kHz from Great Britain)

    In the last years (since the 1970's) I wrote several articles about ionospherical research, radio astronomy and to about longwave and natural-radio. I wrote also several books.
