RE: [CA] Using a Loran antenna with a VHF radio
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum boardman74,

RF antennas are designed / tuned for operation within a specific range of frequencies based upon the device which they will be interfaced to. Loran signal was transmitted within the low frequency (160-180kHz) range while VHF transmits within the very high frequency (VHF) range (160-240MHz). Accordingly, it is not recommended that a Loran antenna be substituted for a VHF antenna for use with a VHF radio.
