It has to be reprogrammed to accept a toggle condition (on/off) and add the switch. Someone months back was tearing apart the Si4734 to see if it was indeed reprogrammable. If I recall correctly,

540 WLIE daytime like its a local. At nite it nearly dissapears. The 1040//1050 is Flemington, NJ and qualifies as a repeater. Can only hear it at nite. You're right about CJMS. Its in the null nicely

Hi Powell, This is very a very interesting insight. If this is the cause of some peoples issues with the G6 then it may be a poor design choice by Eton/Grundig that some would say is a badly

Hi Guys, These recent opinions on the G6 correlate well to the mixed reviews I have found for the G6 (and the G3 for that matter). It seems to me that quality control is an issue for the recent

If you will notice, on battery the G6 runs on 3 volts, but the WalWart is 4.5 volts. It really works MUCH better on 4.5 volts instead of 3. Powell NNNN POP email is powell at backroads DOT

I hate to tell you this guys, but my G6 Buzz edition beats my G8 in the AM and shortwave band barefoot. Even after alignment of the stock G8 loopstick for the BCB. I listen to WGN and WBBM regularly

ferrite61 schreef: Ho .. Wait, I must have missed a message here... How can you adapt the 310 so that soft mute is always off? Thanks, Marc -- What's on Shortwave guide: choose an hour,

Hi Scott, The Grundig Mini 300 was purchased last year as a possible contestant forthe 2009 Ultralight Shootout, but failed to make the final group becauseof poor AM sensitivity. It did provide a

I just started logging things the last 6 months or so after being away forver. From expereience something different can always show up over time. BUT the congestion of stations here on the AM is

hmmm..You hear 1050 on 1040 ? It voids most 1040 dxing here. I sometimes away from this area where 1050 NY is weaker I do pick up a weak station 1040 with country and almost sounds like an 'ethnic

Thanks to Tony and Keith for the info regarding the G6. My Sony 2010 is not much on the air band unless you are at an airport. Including the air band in radios must've been included to give an

From what I see on the web it seems an AM'er in the Carribbean is rare. BUT I'm not sure these websites list everything-- If anybody is old enough they can remember a number of Caribbean stations

Hi Kevin, Thanks for the correction. I interpreted sentence 2 to not specifically disqualify SSB, only saying that it is usually not, actually never, included in an entertainment radio. While it

I too used a spiral loop for a while, but it was a broadband design based on the Wellbrook ALA100 (mounted on an antenna rotor). I eventually went back to a single turn loop for the ALA100, as the

Years ago, someone did in fact build a single turn loop using Tinker Toys as the 'hardware'. I don't recall anything about it's performance though. Russ Edmunds Blue Bell, PA ( 360' ASL ) [15 mi NNW

These were directional with the peak/null being the opposite of a multi-turn air-core loop. My 2', 18-turn air core loop peaks off the 'ends' or the coil, nulls at the broad side. The spiral loop

It looks like a ferris wheel or "Tinker Toy" model of one. Now there's an idea for a loop. Paul S. in CT

I am curious what pick up pattern the old fashion spiral wound antennas had, you know, the ones with effectively only the depth of a single turn. [Not box or solenoid wound] -FARMERIK

I own an R-911, PL200, PL-310 and a G6 (non Buzz Aldrin). Quality-wise, the Grundig is below all 3 Tecsun's. LW is near deaf, VHF is useless. At $100 its way too expensive for what it delivers,
