Very unlikely to be received in the United States but for the hard-core TA DXers a potential target: The small medium-wave transmitter JOE of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits (IIS) in

Best TP reception of the morning was of the ROK powerhouses using a barefoot Skywave SSB. 594 kHz JOAK poor at 1328 (using eight-inch FSL). 828 kHz unID (JOBB?) moderate strength carrier (no audio)

Thanks for the information Paul, I didn't know that about super heavy duty batteries.

Thanks for the information on this, I thought that might be the case. Paul

Thanks for the suggestion on turning off the power on each circuit, next time I am home alone I will give this a try. Paul

Which cells, of the type used in a portable radio, contain sulfuric acid? -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train!

Richard, I guess them their waves were weighed down by snowflakes... How deep is it? Michael UK - cold, windy, dry :-)

I've been using Rayovac alkalines for 10 years, in that time I have found 1 dead battery, and one weak battery. Otherwise no problems. Using these in a R-911 or R-9012 seems to solve as 2800 mahr at a

First reception of a TP signal in several weeks. 774 JOUB barely audible at 1206, peaking to poor at 1216, fading away by 1218. 972 unID (HLCA?) strong heterodyne at 1222-1344. Barefoot Skywave SSB

When I joined in May '08, the DSP revolution was just beginning with the PL-310. I had been using a WRX-911 (Kaito) as a spotter for a 1-Transistor DIY contest for 3 years (06-07-08 winters) and had

One does not connect a "C" size battery with a "AA" size in series. 99.9% of battery compartments are configured for the same size battery. Nonetheless that has NOT stopped people from using an

Over the past few weeks I have noticed some interference on the medium wave band. This seems to be more noticable during the day but a couple of times overnight it has appeared at random times. I have

Thanks Steve. So the smaller cell would die and the larger would still have half it's capacity? While I have always heard not to mix cell types, what would happen?

Hi all. Going back 20+ years, my memory of college electronics was that for two batteries in series, you add the voltage and the current is whatever the batteries are rated for. This would mean that 2

Happy New Year Phil (and Paul, Keith and All), Phil, it sounds like your PL-380 might have one of the external ferrite coil leads disconnected from the RF circuit board. The PL-380' circuit board

Thank you all for the New Year’s Greetings. I feel blessed to be part of such a fine group. May you and your’s all have a blessed new year. Dennis Breda

Love it, Gary. Don't remember seeing this before, although I've been here quite a while. Happy new year and good DX to all! Keith
