Rafansys MLA-30+

The Rafansys MLA-30+ shortwave loop antenna is an affordable active loop antenna that allows people without a large backyard to improve the performance of their shortwave radio. This increases the reception of radio stations and broadcasts. The antenna can be mounted indoors on a non-conductive rod or tube, such as PVC pipe or fiberglass rod (no metal). The loop antenna has a diameter of 60 cm and is connected to the active amplifier housing.

The Rafansys MLA-30+ comes with a "bias tee" power injector that derives the required DC voltage (12V) from any USB power supply or power bank. Despite criticism of the USB components, lab testing has shown that the power injector is well filtered and provides no noticeable difference when compared to a 12 volt linear power supply and a separate bias tee.

The shortwave loop antenna performs well between 500 kHz and 30 MHz and can be rotated to optimize reception, especially on the MW/AM broadcast band. The antenna delivers powerful performance that outperforms other antennas by as much as four times.

SMA to BNC adapter

Uniquely, the Rafansys MLA30+ comes with both an SMA to BNC adapter and a BNC to 3.5mm adapter to ensure compatibility with all modern shortwave receivers.

Attention ! Do not connect this Rafansys MLA-30+ directly to the transmitter, as this will damage the preamplifier.
