Philco 116X tone control (Solved!)
#7

Guys, that is interesting and unexpected since long wire antennas have greater capture-area and are less shielded (by the chassis, cabinet and other local obstructions) and the loops are directional - which can be used to reduce noise.

Not saying it isn't true, just unexpected. This would also depend on how long and high your "long wire" is.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
