Felix, how many grouped together work best? Four?

G'day mate, there may be a practical limit in number but I am presently using four BAT46 schottky diodes in parallel with good results, in fact I am listening to the cricket with it now on local AM radio.

As an example of what paralleling four BAT46 diodes does, one BAT46 has a turn on voltage of about .24 volts. Four in parallel measures .205 volts. Regards, Felix (vk4fuq) aka catman.
