"Let the buyer beware" should be the motto of eBay. To me "You ALWAYS get what you pay for" means expect to pay a premium for good products, not (IMHO) "The most expensive is always the best". I

I was reading a 2004 IRCA publication which included many articles written by names I have seen here, when I noticed an article 'Large Area Loop for High Noise Environments' by Glen Kippel. It is

That goes without saying...but how can this person have the gall to ask these prices? Can he possibly be getting people to buy?

Something less pretty but equally suitable could be rigged upwith a pair of lightweight headphones and a cheap, tiny FMradio. Michael UK

I was looking for a headphone am/fm set (mine just died). Can't believe that an e-bay seller thinks that he can get $500 or $1,000+ for some pedestrian offerings. Check this seller's store!

I know this is the ultralight DX board, but it is the most active DX message board I know of so maybe someone can answer me even though this is not about ULR's. My question is about a red LED tuning

This is mostly about comparing sizes of Litz wire on a ferrite sleeve antenna (FSL), but #22 stranded hookup wire was included as well. I made a smaller FSL in order to minimize how much Litz I had to

Hi Dave: Yes, catching Europeans over here will certainly get harder and harder. Last season the propagation was superb to Europe, but not much of anything this season. Despite the economic

Thanks for the reply Kevin. I feel as if I'm breaking in on 'American Style' listening with the 'Ultalights'. I've been a radio Ham for 20yrs but stayed VHF chasing tropo and Sp-E. Prior to this in

Hi Dave: Thanks for checking in, and welcome to the Group! The ICF-S22 looks like it is performing well, based on what you have heard so far, even with the megawatt interference. However, I must

I purchased a Sony ICF-S22 for less than 'a tenner' earlier this month to try my hand at ultralight dxing here in Warrington, NW England. It's very sensitive although it's selectivity is not very

lo Raph (and All), Thanks for your positive comments on the FSL design and testing. Steve and Kevin have both done a lot of previous experimentation with FSL antennas, and I've been fortunate to

Hello all, This free e-book on LF and HF propagation was mentioned in Kevin Carey's "Below 500 kHz" column in the April "Monitoring Times." I thought some of you might find it

From Berkely Michigan??? According to this

Ditto, the FSL clarifies the IMC well, and quiets the background. Reminds me of the G5's DX switch on the LW/AM-BCB, but probably 10-15 better. Paul S. in CT

The former WDZK in Bloomfield, CT (R.Disney) 1550 kHz has been silent for quite a while. Last nite around 0030 EDT caught a nice call for the new station in the null of CBE. WSDK is now a religious

Howdy Jerry: Cuba is also a distinct possibility. I have logged it from CT many times in the null of WGN. From your location, SSE direction would be best orientation to confirm. Maybe step outside if

Hard to believe there was enough money in those days for a 1KW broadcaster (times two) to financially support all those towers. I'm going to guess maintenance for 6 fifty year old towers, not to

Thanks for the MP3's Gary. Now we can hear what you've been talking about. -Mark ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
