This paper reports on an ongoing collaborative effort between the physics department at Indiana University Southeast and the Electrical Engineering Technology department of Purdue University located on the IUS campus. The project involved students in an electronics course who built circuits for use with an ultra low frequency antenna. The antenna was built by students in a physics laboratory course to detect naturally occurring signals with frequencies under 100 Hz.
