here is another example of FERRITE ROD antennas for both TRANSMIT and RECEIVE on the VLF BAND

brief demo of using two custom Ferrite Rod antennas for TRANSMIT & RECEIVE over Through The Earth CW Comms on the VLF band @ 6469hz The Transmit Antenna is made from ferrite material 43, FERRITE CABLE CORES, 3 layers, 3 sizes, stacked inside each other to make a 1 foot length, by 1 inch in diameter complete ferrite core ROD, its secondary windings are about 350 to 400 turns, with its primary being 15 turns... it is resonant tuned for peak output at 6.469kHZ by a CAP connected to each end of its secondary windings The Receive Antenna is modified from C.Crane's TWIN COIL FERRITE ROD ANTENNA patent info on GOOGLE PATENTS here: https://patents.google.com/patent/US6529169B2/en
