Clunker conditions prevailed for the third day in a row here with a weak carrier on 1566 kHz (around 1330) being the only sign of Asian life. Unlike Walt I had no DU's show up with dawn enhancement

Hi distinct Turkestan-style music (lute, oud) at 1715 utc on 1449 khz under RAI, sometimes dominant for a brief spell. News at 1730, defiitely not Arabic, a bit too weak to decide between Farsi

There was no reception of 657-Pyongyang or any other Asians this morning, which of course means a total shutout in this DU-dead zone. Not even a carrier showed up, which is pretty unusual in October.

While the Victoria DXers enjoy a diverse variety of Asian and DU-DX on many mornings the only unusual signal that seems to be enhanced here is the North Korean "booby prize" of 657-Pyongyang. This

Hi First and foremost is an outdoors antenna away from the ambient RFI/Noise in the interior of your residence. Also since you are into MW a store bought Loop will help out in nulling out

Asian signals rebounded quite a bit from yesterday's clunker session here as a generous sunrise enhancement after 1400 boosted up several second-tier TP's along with the usual Japanese and Korean big

As others have reported Asian propagation took a nosedive around 1200 UTC, with this location suffering the worst effects. In comparison to yesterday the TP's practically took a day off, with only the

Walt was certainly correct in judging this morning's dawn enhancement as impressive, although in addition to the Japanese there were star performers here from Korea as well. To add some extra variety

Little was heard here again this morning. There seemed to be a mixed bag of TP & DU signals. 612 4QR? carrier in KCSP-610 slop at 1221. 702 2BL? carrier in XEGD-700 splash at 1219-1247 (LSR

For the BEST nulling and reception since this radio is single conversion and a cousin of the Tecsun R9012 and Kaito WRX 911... It is ALWAYS RECOMMENDED to raise the FM/Shortwave antenna away from the

This radio has the same exceptional reception and nulling capability of the Kaito WRX 911 AND the Tecsun R9012! If you want a good cheap analog tuned digital display radio then BUY THIS off of
