Hi Guys: Not much doing tonight at SUNSET......and what was coming in seemed to be from the SOUTH, nothing East/West today!! Heard a couple nice Relogs from the South, and a UNID @ Sign-Off, which

Hi Paul, What you are describing sounds a lot like the Q Stick Plus made by Gerry Thomas who also makes the Quantum Loop antenna. Here is the website for the Q

Gary: Thanks for pointing out Laurie's article. I wish I'd known about it before removing the antenna from a PL-310 in order to use the 7.5-inch loopstick. Looking at the photograph in your PL-606

Hi Guys: Thanks to the WWKB Maintenance last night after 2200 EST, I was able to Log 1 New Station on 1520 Khz. Also had a presumed Relog. One New Station is better than a kick in the head...so

The main discussion has been about plug-in loopsticks, but I would like to inquire about passive LW loopsticks/tuners that are not connected. I have plans sketched for a 2200 uH model that will tune

I'm having far too much fun with my '606's built-in loopstick, so I'm not in the market for any of the external units just yet. I am curious, though, how I'd get it to work with the '606 since the

Hello All, Thanks to all who have expressed interest in the 7.5" Longwave plug-inloopsticks, designed for the PL-360 and other Tecsun DSP Ultralight models. Thisproject is a follow-up effort to the

Hi Guys: Well.....Today was my first Official Day of Retirement after nearly 33 years with the Local Men in Blue here in London. I used the day to relax and pinch myself all day, as I still can't
