Thanks for the link, Paul. I had this article on the hard-disk, but lost it, along with other files, when the disk failed during a backup. Well worth reading! Michael UK

I have recently come across this website, it is a lot to read but gives a great history of the FSL and it's development. http://www.zen22142.zen.co.uk/Media/fsi.htm -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

The All States DX Challenge will see me target a single station in every Australian state, the ACT and also a New Zealand station over the next few months. 558kHz - 6WA 576kHz - 2RN 585kHz -

Hi, just a technical note, all the DSP portable radios use an external circuit to receive the air band, it is not received directly from the DSP IC (usually Si4735 in our radios) The external circuit

Recently I have been looking at change / improving my Portable Ultralight Radio Go Kit. Until now I have used a few different cases and bags, some have worked really well, others have not been as

Here in Australia we are still 25kHz, I believe that Europe is 8.33kHz spacing.-- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Today I came across a recording of a TP DX 10-17-19. My log book show it was an unidentified signal on 702 kHz. Before deleting it I decided to give a listen. It turned out there was enough

Rémy , IIRC it has already happened. There was talk of changing from 25 to 12.5 to double the number of channels but instead they went straight to 8.33kHz effectively tripling the number. The change

Hi everyone, I read somewhere that channel spacing on the Airband is being changed from 25 to 8 kHz. Anyone know if this has been implemented anywhere already. It's likely to be a

Another good source for air band frequencies is https://skyvector.com/airports, the site also has aviation charts so you can see which airports are nearby your location, the most useful are

Great writeup. The C. Crane Skywave SSB can actually "scan" up to 10 airband frequencies in a single bank. After programming them into the bank you press both the up and down slewing buttons

Thanks, gentlemen, good info. Keith Beesley Seattle WA On Wednesday, May 6, 2020, 10:47:07 PM PDT, kevin asato <kc6pob@...> wrote:

Good quick read, Paul. Not quite ultralight as i have a desktop scanner programmed but -Depending upon where you reside, the airbands can be tough to monitor. i am fortunate to have two commercial
