Hello all, I'm looking into getting a MFJ-1886 loop antenna to use with a old Drake R8A shortwave radio but I noticed something that I was wondering somebody could answer.
For the antenna connections on the Drake R8A all what they have for connections is a VHF antenna, Dipole low impedance, and longwire high impedance. I included a link to the Drake R8A manual, the antenna connections page is on page 8.
So my question is will the MFJ-1886 work on the Dipole low impedance antenna connection? Since its a plug for PL-259 connections which the MFJ-1886 needs for a connections. Or I'm I out of luck?
