I designed this ultra-low-noise pre-amplifier to improve radio
reception with my SDR setup. It is intended for use with a
magnetic loop antenna and a standard 50-ohm receiver input,
targeting a frequency range of approximately 10 kHz to 30 MHz,
covering VLF through HF.
The pre-amplifier is designed to provide high sensitivity,
low noise, and wideband performance, making it suitable for
receiving weak radio signals across a broad frequency range.
It also incorporates measures to reduce interference from
strong out-of-band signals.
The design focuses on maintaining good signal quality while
remaining practical for everyday SDR use. Its expected
frequency coverage is based on theoretical calculations,
and real-world testing is still needed to verify its
performance, noise characteristics, and effective range.
