Ideally suited for today's compact shortwave receiver and fully portable inside its convenient, compact carrying case, the ANT-60 extends to a full 23 feet and enhances the performance and reception of your shortwave radio beyond that of a typical built-in telescoping antenna From the Manufacturer Shortwave radios brought the world together long before the Internet, and now the Sangean ANT-60 antenna helps maximize your shortwave experience. Ideally suited for today's compact shortwave receiver and fully portable inside its convenient, compact carrying case, the ANT-60 extends to a full 23 feet and enhances the performance and reception of your shortwave radio beyond that of a typical built-in telescoping antenna. An adapter plug is provided for those receivers lacking a standard 1/8-inch (3.5mm) miniplug. Review: Very inexpensive solution to good reception - Bought this for my Choyong LC90 radio. See the video for how well it works for short wave reception. I am doing the video during the day and receiving distant stations. At night it is way better. Sangean provides a clip on adapter if your radio does not have an external 1/8 jack for antenna a very nice touch. In my video I have it plugged in to the external antenna. Right now is a great time for SW reception because we are at the peak of sunspot cycle. Unit winds up very nicely. Just be careful not to tangle it up like some reviewers stated. There is no problem if you wind it back with slight tension on the wire. For the price it is a nice little package. Yeah you could cut a piece of wire to 28 ft and use it but for the price you have a nice reusable antenna. Review: A Signal Savior – Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna Review - I'm thrilled to share my outstanding experience with the Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna! As an avid shortwave radio enthusiast and DXer (distant signal hunter), I've struggled with mediocre antennas – until this game-changer arrived. **Unboxing and Build Quality** The ANT-60 arrived promptly, well-packaged, and surprisingly lightweight. Its compact design (23.6 x 5.5 x 2.4 inches) belies its powerful performance. The antenna's sturdy construction and sleek appearance suggest superior quality – which it delivers. **Easy Installation and Versatility** Setup was a breeze – merely attach the included BNC connector to my radio and mount the antenna vertically or horizontally (I chose vertical). The ANT-60 works seamlessly with various shortwave radios, scanners, and receivers. Its wide frequency range (2-30 MHz) covers essential shortwave bands. **Signal Boost and Noise Reduction** The real magic happens when you turn on your radio – signals leap to life! The ANT-60 significantly enhances reception quality, pulling in distant stations with clarity and strength. Noise reduction is equally impressive, minimizing interference and static. My favorite international broadcasts now sound crystal clear. **Performance Comparison and Field Testing** Side-by-side testing with my previous antenna revealed the ANT-60's superiority – stronger signals, better selectivity, and reduced fading. Field tests in various environments (urban, rural, indoors, outdoors) consistently demonstrated its excellence. **Conclusion** The Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna has revolutionized my shortwave listening experience – stronger signals, reduced noise, and effortless installation make it a must-have for enthusiasts. Whether you're a casual listener or serious DXer, this antenna will elevate your enjoyment. Pros: * Compact design with powerful performance * Easy installation and versatile connectivity * Significant signal boost and noise reduction * Wide frequency range covering essential shortwave bands * Durable construction and sleek appearance Cons: None noted during extensive testing and comparison ## Features - Improves the performance and reception of your shortwave radio - The Sangean ANT-60 Portable Shortwave Antenna will improve the performance and reception of your Shortwave Antenna and will easily outperform its built-in telescopic antenna.

Ideally suited for today’s compact Shortwave Receivers, the Sangean ANT-60 is a must wherever and whenever you use your Shortwave Receiver. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000023VW2 | | Antenna | Radio | | AntennaDescription | Radio | | Best Sellers Rank | #72 in Radio Antennas | | Brand | Sangean | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 2,408 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00079531992481, 00729288003601 | | Impedance | 50 ohm | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 8.27"L x 5.98"W x 0.94"H | | Item Weight | 0.04 kg | | Manufacturer | Sangean | | Maximum Range | 23 feet | | Mfr Part Number | ANT-60 | | Model Number | ANT-60 | | Number of Channels | 5 | | Number of Items | 1 | | UPC | 729288003601 846830066577 079531992481 031111304916 863189901045 046044241962 093982798096 804067187458 808112928171 014444718261 021111156967 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 90 days parts and labor | ## Product Details - **Antenna:** Radio - **Brand:** Sangean - **Color:** Black - **EU Spare Part Availability Duration:** 1 years - **Impedance:** 50 ohm - **Manufacturer:** Sangean - **Maximum Range:** 23 feet - **Number of Channels:** 5 - **Product Dimensions:** 8.27"L x 5.98"W x 0.94"H ## Images ![Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/517SPLWkWAL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I'm new at this game. So my question is--- how do you attach this ant to your radio?//Thanks** A: For the direct connection to work, the radio must have a jack (like the headphone jack) marked antenna. Not all radios have this direct connection and that is why Sangean includes the clip on pictured which attaches to your radio's telescopic antenna. **Q: Does the antenna "base" have adhesive/magnet on the bottom? Would like to put the antenna where one of the two is required.** A: This antenna consists of a long, thin, strong wire on a reel. To deploy the antenna you connect the free end of the wire to your radio either with the attached plug or by clipping the provided adapter to the radio's telescoping antenna. Next you unspool the wire, positioning it as much in the clear as possible. The far end of the wire is permanently attached to the reel.. The reel has short lanyard with a clip that you can use to attach to whatever is at hand. **Q: Would this product help with picking up fm stations on my fm/am portable stereo? i have trouble with midrange power fm stations at my workplace.** A: Yes it worked great for me. I receive about twice as many FM stations. **Q: Does it work or make the reception better w/ the Tecsun PL380?** A: I can't say for the Tecsun 380 but use it with a Tecsun 310et and Tecsun PL660 with very good results and have picked up places like Australia and New Zealand from southeast Ohio. I think the main difference between the 310 and 380 is that the 310 has an external antenna jack. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very inexpensive solution to good reception *by L***G on November 23, 2024* Bought this for my Choyong LC90 radio.
