Hello. Can anyone help me about make a passive loop antenna 1 HZ to 1 KHZ please?

Get a long piece of ferrite rod (2-3 feet or 1 Meter) and wrap it with fine wire about 250,000 turns.

Maybe you can find something to get your research started. They got vlf you might be able to find something. Also I think there is a yahoo group Loop Antennas

I use the double wound ferrite without shield. You will need about twice as many windings on each side to get the inductance right. So if you need 100 windings on single, then the double will require 200 on each side, or 400 total.

Don't have a clue if this would work for other locators. Eventually i plan to build a ToTeM receiver and try it out. But don't feel like gambling right now LOL.
