Well, having read your post Johnny, I did what I do best and started looking online! I really did like the quality look of Mini, but being a cheapskate I’ve ordered this one, I’ll post how it

Hi Paul Yes, it’s similar selection on both my Tecsuns.

Hi Zacharias i thank you for that, but I don’t have anything to do with Google if I can avoid it. The only concession to this rule is YouTube which it would be facile to reject. Yes, I’m old and

The CC skywave has a 9/10khz selectable button. With the radio off, hold the number 0 for about 2-3 seconds and you can toggle between 9/10khz frequencies. Also, when weak dxing, i suggest setting the

Hi all, I have recently bought the Eton/Grundig Elite Mini and really like it! You can get it "repackaged" from Amazon in the US for about $24. It is incredibly simple, but with surprising reception

Hi Zacharias I don’t at the moment do MW, but what I didn’t know about was the ilovelanguages section of YouTube; thank you! That’s a great resource and will be very helpful. What I’ve just

Although not nearly as "North" as you, we are feeling similar dulldrums here in Michigan! Last night was pretty lame on the AM/FM DX front for me... The weekend was great, but last night, not so
