Crosley 66TA loop antenna manufacture
#1

My Crosley 66TA has no back panel of course, but I thought I might try to make one including a loop antenna. I've attached the only picture I can find on the net of the Crosley 66TA loop antenna. It seems to be a simple flat loop of about three turns with a lead at each end of the loop running around the edge of the fiberboard back. Does anyone have a live version of one of these to confirm? Can it be that simple? I'm a bit surprised by this since the sets are supposed to be great at pulling in signals.
