Hi Bob,
You may want to look on eBay. I see wavemagnet antennas come up occasionally.

I know that one thing Zenith did back then was to put a grounded noise reflecting loop over the loop antenna. The wave magnets I have seen that are not sealed have a lot of coils as the antenna loop.

Best Regards,

Bill

::Bill i've got a trans-oceanic with wave magnet on top of the set...if you lay your outside antenna coax across the top of it, it increases long distance reception ALOT! neat old technology no doubt!
