Difference between 41-295 and 41-300
#6

Probably one of the best AM loop antennas out there is the Kiwa Pocket Loop (http://www.kiwa.com/pktloop.html). It's kinda spendy, but it's based on its big (and long since discontinued) brother air loop which I've owned for 15 years, and performs miracles both in receiving as well as nulling unwanted adjacent signals. With the proper impedance matching, I'm sure it would work wonders on your 41-295.

You also might try finding the loop from a 1940 model Philco console, which looks something like a cardboard-covered muffler. It works extremely well, and because it's much more narrow than the 295 loop, allows a nearly 170 degree turning angle from the back of the cabinet.

Good luck!

Mike
