Re: Degen PL1126
I've had one for about 10 days now. My take:
MW to SW bleed-through doesn't seem as bad as on the D96L.
Seems to be able to record at any volume level. I haven't figured out how to set it to make

Re: Strange problem with PL-380
I have seen portable radios that would automatically switch to
'headphone-antenna-mode' when I plugged headphones in. This was
usually only on FM, but I'm guessing that is what's happening

Re: Strange problem with PL-380
Hi Ginger,
The problem happens only with the clip-on antenna, and only on shortwave.
I tried using a stereo to mono adapter (stereo on the headphone side, mono on the radio side), but this made no

Re: Degen PL1126
Gary, a few questions about the 1126
I'm wondering if the bleed through is as bad as my Kchibo D96L
Does it fix the DE1123 issues with having to record on Max-Volume?
How is the default bandwidth on

Re: If you wanted to buy a passive loop antenna, what would you buy?
Hi,
I bought a Grundig-badged AN-200, cost USD30, a few days ago on my travels in the US. After building a few larger tuned loops, this one is easy to transport when I'm travelling and for what it

Re: Mini DXpedition to Jayne's Hill Long Island
An updated version of the D96L would be great! However, as I work with these radios and read about the Tecsun models, I can't help but wonder what the DE1123 would be with a larger loopstick, and

Tropical Band Modifications?

Hi John,
I've not really tried FX DXing beyond a little dabbling here and there.
I live in a large metro area full of FM stations close to me and I can
never seem to pull stations further than 75

Hey John:
In File Folder 5 here on the Group there is an article "Comparing Small MW DXing Antennas.pdf", comparing a bunch of commercially available units.
In my opinion, there is little difference

Re: Mini DXpedition to Jayne's Hill Long Island
Thanks, Neil,
No doubt the salt water of L.I. Sound helps with propagation from CT, RI, and MA.
I love my D96L for FM. AM/MW is almost as good; SW would probably be great if it didn't have those
