[Elecraft] K3 Below 500 KHz RX Antenna
phil, K7PEH, asked: What is the cheapest easiest although effective RX antenna for listening to whatever below 500 KHz with a K3... For what it's worth, I use an ordinary HF inverted L with a Jackson Harbor LF Converter to receive the VLF signals from the stateside submarine communications stations at 24.0, 24.8 and 25.2kHz, WWVB at 60kHz, and dozens of NDB stations from all over the US up to 400kHz or so, with a variety of receivers including an FT817 and a KX3.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: sorta- Sugru for potting and making custom lumpy cables

Did it work well? Sugru has worked very well for me in a number of instances, the latest being in sealing (in effect, potting) a coax connection associated with my loop antenna. See k5td.com/Loop_Antenna.html for details.
