I was watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3pEdw1c358 a day or so ago where Kevin was building his own youloop as well as trying out one of the knockoffs. There's some comments from the

Many thanks for this. This helps a lot! -- // pedro andrade

I just ordered the XHDATA D-808 and later observed a few posts which indicated that the external antenna jack is for all bands except MW. I downloaded a recent PDF of the manual, which states that the

Actually 7RN is the South Pacific station that we hear 90% of the time here also, Paul. About 4% of the time 2WEB is all alone on the frequency, and once in a blue moon the underperforming Kiwi Maori

The construction article gives full information for building either an AM (Medium Wave) or Longwave-optimized loopstick, but even if you choose the AM (MW-optimized) loopstick, it will still boost

Thanks for the comments

Nice logging Gary. As 7RN is "local" for me, I struggle to hear 2WEB. -- Paul

Ultralight group member David Sharp is the Breakfast Show announcer on 585-2WEB, a 10 kW station in Bourke, Australia. He shocked me about 10 years ago when I complained on the Ultralight list about

Mike, I agree quite a bit with what you wrote, I would look at the Skywave as a better all-round DXer, but the PL-330 has USB/LSB for about the same coin. A trade-off for sure, but function vs. DX has

Thanks Gary: I will try this mod, I also do a passive resonate Ferrite loop stick and increase the sensitivy but the noise floor of the radio itself is very very high, also the radio have noise even

Good points. I remember quality issues with different production runs on the 800 and E1. I had 2 2010s and had to get one repaired because of the fet issue. No radio is perfect. I may be off base

Mike, It's funny that you mention the Satellit 800 and E1 because they are top performers and the E1 was a breakthrough in some ways, as a portable with Sync which worked (very well) in three modes

Thanks for the feedback. I had one for awhile and tried it on my SDR and was not impressed. Ended up returning it. Have seen some recent chatter about the antenna and got curious about the
