I am trying to improve reception of an air traffic control transmission from the South Atlantic. Is there a specific antenna for reception on this frequency of 10,096?

It would help to know what you are using now, how much room do you have to work with and budget.

A simple dipole is easy to make, cost little but it is large:


Total Antenna Length ("L"): 46 Feet, 4.6 Inches
Element Length ("E"): 23 Feet, 2.3 Inches

What is your noise level like?

A magnetic loop may be worth looking into as well but cost a lot more and or is more involved to make.
