FM antenna amplifier

Use this fm antenna amplifier in areas where the signal reception of FM stations is too bad.
This circuit is just the right thing to do it. It is designed in such a way that the supply current powering it flows through coaxial cable. With this technique, an extra cable to power the fm antenna amplifier [...]


Tv antenna amplifier circuit schematic 1

A very simple and cheap tv antenna amplifier circuit built with BF961 a N–Channel Dual Gate MOS common transistor used for input- and mixer stages especially for FM- and VHF TV-tuners up to 300 MHz.
Bellow you have the antenna tv amplifier schematic and here is the BF961 datasheet.
L1 = L2 = 5turns / 0.8mm [...]


Half wave Dipole antenna

Dipole antenna or half wave antenna are the most used because is easy to build and cost a few bucks but has some drawbacks like little directionality, small gain.
The dipole antenna is build generally like in the picture but it is symmetric and the coaxial cable is asymmetric, that’s why we use a piece of [...]
