The Wellbrook ALA 1530+ is an active magnetic loop receive-only antenna, manufactured by Wellbrook Communications of the UK. It consists of an approximately 3' diameter loop, made of aluminum tubing about 1" in diameter, with an integrated amplifier. A small interface device located near the receiving radio supplies 12 volts to the antenna over the coaxial cable, and provides an interface to the radio over the full range of reception.
