Re: Sangean DT-800 vs Sihuadon R-108 vs CCRadio 2E
Some YT reviewers have noted the DT-800 to have a relatively high noise floor on AM. Perhaps what you are observing, explains where that comes from in that most YT reviewers do not use headphones for

Schematically, the FSL and Terk resemble a tuned LC circuit.; the difference is that the Terk

Re: Kchibo D96L portable radio.
It sounds like a display issue if this changes but it stays on the right station. I find these CCR to be a mixed bag.

Re: Recent FSL Antenna Experimentation
Well. yes. A FSL is supposed to increase selectivity over a very small frequency range to aid in finding that one station buried adjacent in frequency of a higher powered station. Not just the FSL but

Re: Recent FSL Antenna Experimentation
I have determined that broadband FSL’s don’t work very well for broadband recording with an SDR to sift thru later, unless wound on a large amount of ferrite. A broadband winding on a small FSL

FM Translators - Why?
Hi all,
Why do FM Translators exist?
The closest I can tell is that they exist to give an AM station a "Market Presence" in the FM band at a local level.
Is that pretty much it? Or am I missing

That is too bad. I would really like to see the information. Maybe one of the mods can help you with it. Hopefully the post was saved somewhere.

Re: Recent FSL Antenna Experimentation
Have you published details of your broadband amplified FSL, Rob?
I don't know if others have tried the copper flashing for a pickup winding. How different is its response from using a simple loop
