Sorry, meant to send this out to the group.

The jack for an external antenna works just fine at HF too...I use it with a
National RF, Inc amplified handheld loop.  The cable connects to a separate
switchable attenuator (Elecraft AT1).  Loops are available that cover ranges
from 160m to VHF.  Works very well.

Tnx Jim,
I thought that was for a single wire and not something like a coax
connection going to a loop.

No need for a mod -- there's a 1/8-in jack near the top of the left side. I
don't know how low in frequency it works, but it's good at VHF.
