Great, Paul... I used the WJCC logging in both the Barefoot and Unlimited Class, sinceyou heard it with and without the loop. It set a new distancerecord in both categories for 1,000 watt stations.

HI Gary from peter a very big thnkyou to you I did not know that you can get the old half inch ferrite rods from old radios on Ebay I will get looking right away Best regards from peter

Way to go Paul...I knew you could do it!! Congratulations on obtaining your goal and then some!! The best part of the whole exercise is that you had fun....and that's the bottom line of this whole

A while back I had mentioned that an air core coil had greatly outperformed a chunky surplus ferrite bar antenna on my SRF-49 when used as an external booster antenna. I had quickly wound the

Hi Paul, sorry I was not on-line at that time. However, I can confirm this kind of music is often heard at 1620 :) (how nice!). --hg

Great Project, John! Your success in coupling effective externalantennas to the SRF-39FP and DT-200VX ultralights should give you lots ofexciting TP-DX at Orcas Island. Especially with the

This started out to be a brief explanation of the subject and anannouncement that there is a new photo album showing the steps needed toinstall an input port for external antennas to one of

Hey, John! Nice article on the UL external antenna mods -- thank you. Have you checked to see whether the turns wrapped around the ferrite bar for the jack effects the alignment tuning of the bar?

Hi all, three new UL TA catches for me last night including my best yet. 930 CFBC St. John NB, 04:30 "Oldies 93 CFBC" No sign of CJYQ. 650 CKGA Gander, NL, 03:55 "VOCM 590" and this beauty : ) 1110

Thanks, Gary.... I do look forward to a DXpeditiontogether, for sure. I'm going to have a difficult time sorting betweenwanting to use my big gear to chace unQSLed stations and wanting to pileup

Help! Help! After my success at adding the antenna input port to the SangeanDT-200VX, I started into the E100 last night with the same mod in mind.The back cover came off fine (getting it back on is

I've just posted the latest update of the Ultralight Firsts and Recordslist to the Ultralight Files area of dxer.ca

Hi John: Sorry, no insights on disassembling the e100, but a few weeks ago I ran the e100 and the SRF units through an exhaustive, musta been 15- 20 minutes long :-), test to see how they allowed

These areinteresting findings on selectivity of the E100. I wonder if the E10 is similar?I have an E10 I picked up at Fry's Electronics for a measly $29.99, and I'vebeen impressed with its performance

Hi Garry: Thanks for the detailed blow-by-blow. I too have found that eventually an air core loop out-pulls a ferrite. I look forward to your pictures! Quick question: when you say 1.2 inches long

Hi Folks; To clarify my coil, the 1.2" is the axial length of the coil. It is quite short in length and quite wide in diameter (4.1"). It looks a bit like a loop antenna. I'm not sure if it is

I uploaded pictures of my test coils. They were each used with the same variable cap for comparison as booster antennas with my SRF-49. My previous post describes the test and procedure. I was

In case you missed it, Michael Slattery, G8PNX, of Sheffield just uploaded a very nice article on putting a much better IF filter in the DT-210. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ultralightdx/files/ Darn
