Tonight I am hearing a station on 162 KHz. There has been two men taking turns talking in an unhurried fashion, [unlike domestic AM] and now there is a song with a male singer and piano. I think it is

Hello Joe: For Ultralight LONGWAVE DXing I use a "Gary DeBock" TECSUN PL-380 ULR with a 7 1/2" External Ferrite Rod wound for Longwave. I also have that coupled to a "Gary DeBock" LONGWAVE FSL

Thanks, with your help I was able to get the display on the GP-5/SSB to read LW frequencies, but all I heard on both the BOG and a 50 foot aerial was images from MW which were stronger than beacons,

Mr. Ross, I am new to Ultra Light DXing and was told you're the authority on European Long wave reception. I have a few Ultralights to choose from, but would like to see what you recommend for an

Thanks for the helpful infomation. To get the radio into LW, you hold the 9 khz button down and then hold down the MW button. This should work.

Hi Michael, <<< Do we have reports of reception in the US of European LW broadcast stations with any of the FSL designs? >>> Yes. Rob Ross of London, Ontario has received almost all of the

Hi Farmerik, <<< My question is have you given any thought or done any testing with those two vertical format DSP radios and the 'Baby FSL's' ? >>> The PL-360 uses the same Si4734 DSP chip as

Hi Ryan, <<< I just finished building Gary's 3" FSL PL-380 and noticed when I hook up the FSL antenna to AM1 and AM2, the shortwave reception takes a nosedive. The shortwave reception is also

I use a 500 foot unterminated Beverage to hear European LW broadcasts. It points ENE, which I think heads more toward Northern Europe, certainly not toward France. I am about 60 miles inland from

Hello, I am new to Ultralight DX,ing and would like some advice on the best chances for receiving LW DX stations from my location in Buffalo, NY. I've seen some of the logs with reception of European

Sadly, Keith, the chances for Asia are practically zip. Radio Rossii had several longwave broadcast stations in the eastern part of Russia that were frequently audible on our left coast, but these

Any special antenna used on the portables that allow such distance reception on LW?

As you may remember, I am not up to modifying these tiny radios myself so I use external antennas on the PL-360 and the similar format GP5/SSB. I believe they use different DSP chips, and of course

Being fully aware that many DXers are not keen on DXing with a portable having an antenna weighing more than the radio itself, I did some experimentation on creating the lightest (and cheapest)

It would be fun to hear some broadcast stations on LW. From my area, I only hear nav beacons and images of MW stations. There supposedly are LW broadcast stations from Russia and Mongolia that are

I found this on Time Traveller dated October 2015. Tony in NZ

What frequency do you hear Ireland on? I was never able to hear it on the listed frequency from North East USA, I think around 250 KHz? Maybe it is lower power than domestic BBC on 198 or directional

Let us hope you are right! Could you furnish links and sources, please ! In Western Europe, we still have BBC, Ireland and France on LW. Given propagation properties, LW has a lot to offer,
