Using insulated backstay for A) Navtex rec. and B) ssb-transc.

Tnx Larry, my receiver can't work with a active antenna, only with a
passive one.
Is a loopstick still suitable?
If so, how do I build or where can I buy a loopstick antenna?

Not true. The active antenna has a "coupler" that adds DC to the coax
cable out to the antenna, but doesn't feed it through a capacitor to the
receiver. The receiver is plugged into the coupler, the coupler to the
antenna cable. The receiver is not involved at powering the
antenna....just enjoying the nice signal strength.
