Re: Comparing ferrite loopsticks a box loop on longwave
Can you expand on this? What makes the 7600GR so different from the
Tecsuns that it can make use of the Stick while the others cannot?

DXing Drought Concludes
Howdy Gang,
It's very cold here in northcentral Oklahoma. It's been snowing for the last 7 hours at times at abt one inch per hour. Anyway, after a few weeks of empty-handedness, I stumbled across a

Re: ULR DX.......More Great Conditions @ SUNSET!!! 4 More NEW STATIONS + Nice RELOGS!!
Hey Rob:
This seems excessive! Maybe limit it to one or two per night, so as to pace yourself?
I'd just hate to see you overdoing it in your retirement:-)

Thanks Gary - I will have to try both of those frequencies tomorrow morning. I did sit on 266 khz for a little bit, but only VR was coming in.

Hi Rob, Kevin and All,
In between winding 7.5" LW looopsticks for others there has been a
little time to chase NDB's here, and the log now has 88 stations from 7
states and 4 provinces. This morning

Re: Congratulations to the Recent Milestone Achievers
Allen & Diane:
Thank you.
Instead of hearing 800 stations on an ULR, I'd rather hear the far off DX you receive in Newfoundland. Only the strongest transoceanic signals penetrate this far inland.

Even without WBBZ in my backyard, 1250 kHz is tough here. The biggest problem being Kansas City's KYYS heard 24/7.

I'm familiar with that rut. I've been stuck in it a few times and found only persistence works for extraction.
