The Hamcrafters VLF Converter is an updated version of the original Palomar design and converts 10 KHz - 500 KHz to 4.010 to 4.5 MHz. This allows use of your HF Receiver or Transceiver and all its filters, noise blankers, DSP, and memories on the VLF band. Modern HF radios have poor sensitivity in the VLF range (by design). Using this converter with a wire or loop antenna will allow reception of navigational beacons, time, and other VLF signals.
Listen in on:
136 KHz and 490 KHz VLF Bands
Non Directional Beacons (NDBs)
WWV on 60 KHz
