Review by
Takahito Akabayashi

In response to requests for further information in Japanese, we are pleased to provide copies in Japanese of the User Report published in the September 2000 edition of CQ Ham Radio magazine, by Takahito Akabayashi. Orders for the Wellbrook ALA1530 active loop antenna have been despatched to radio enthusiasts in Japan and, as expected, great results have been obtained.

Takahito pointed out to us:

"I also insisted on the superiority of magnetic loop in the metropolitan areas, to many shortwave listeners at Ham Fest , held in Yokohama on August 11-13, 2000. Most of them seemed agreed!"

Figure 1 on Page 4 is a "Comparison of the signal strength of the received signal between ALA1530 and MT (RF Systems)", and Figure 2 is "Comparison of the background noise level between ALA1530 and MT".

The ALA1530 antenna can be obtained from:
