Thanks Scot - I printed that off. Any recommendation for the LW BCB band, [not NDB's] ? - FARMERIK

I'm going to toss in a few additional random comments here: 1) I see no reason why one wouldn't be able to log 100 stations on AM within a week in any major metro. 2) To most DX'ers the word "log" can

Correction for FARMERIK: For an FT140-61, wrap 60 turns on the secondary and 6 turns of the bifilar primary to get a total of 12 turns when you solder the ends together. A 54 (not 76) turn secondary

Sounds like fun. :) I'm actually out of town right now, though, so can't really do anything today. Maybe I could try for DX Centurian San Diego, but I don't think there are 100 stations, even if you

A note in the SiLabs SI4734 data sheet, about using a matching transformer with a low-inductance loop antenna, is what got me started on the Hoop Loop. I made the transformer winding that connects to

Hello All, Rob has given an excellent overview of the goals and principles of ourUltralight Awards Program, which has been one of the most popular attractions ofour niche group since its creation in

I was thinking... maybe Gary (and others) could use this as an idea for a place to review AM radios. I think it could be the ultimate selectivity, overload/image rejection, directivity stress test,

Sounds interesting. :) I'm about 15 miles, give or take, from the Pacific Ocean and the US/Mexican border, although the border is possibly closer. Also by going 20-25 miles east or northeast, I may

This is why there aren't hard and fast rules. There can be tremendous differences between at the shore and even 5 miles inland. But for TP reception only the 100 mile distance between Orcas and

The reception differences between home (Billerica, MA) and the closest shore sites 15 miles away (Revere, Lynn, Swampscott) are astounding. Not just for Europe, Africa, and the Middle East but just

Greetings everyone, Just for the record I have a correction on the Okie Latin total count. The new XE recently hrd was LAm #97, not 98 as I reported. The logging below is actually the 98th LAm.Logged

Hi Rob and Mark, Your comments on this certainly make sense, Rob, and I agree with them. Oneinteresting quirk, though, was John B.'s insistence that his Grayland,Washington TP loggings be combined
