LP-3 Standard H-field antenna Electrostatically Shielded Broadband Loop
More engineers use the LP-3 for AM measurements than any other antenna
(out of production)
The LP-3 series standard H-Field Antenna is specifically designed for emission measurement of AM broadcast stations using a spectrum analyzer or other calibrated receiver. The electrostatically shielded loop provides unmatched E-field rejection. The bi-directional null pattern allows greater than 25 dB reduction in interference from other carriers as well as convenient attribution of subject emissions.
Optimal broadband design permits accurate bandwidth and harmonic
measurement. Antenna factor calibration, documentation,
and applications manual is also supplied. A camera tripod with standard
threaded mounting is recommended for most
work.
The LP-3, introduced
in 1994, has become the industry standard for AM broadcast
testing. Used by the top consulting engineers, as well as government
regulatory agencies. Some
folks write us with their experiences.
