Greetings everyone. This is my first post to this group. I've been a MW DX-er for almost 40 years. Living in New Jersey all my life has made this hobby a real challenge. I have my Grandfather

Here in northeastern Ohio I too heard 850 KOA/Denver on Saturday night. My challenge: a local station ALSO on 850...WKNR, who's transmitter site is 15 miles north of me, runs 4,400 watts at night,

Congratulations John. I just reached 30 states last week logging KURL-730, Billings MT, from my QTH near Billings OK. I imagine adding new states becomes much more difficult after 30. And I doubt

I'm at 36 states overall, so getting to 35 UL states will be tough. Minnesota should be possible with WCCO but I have yet to hear it this season. Arkansas should be possible if KAAY can make through

Good Work John...and have fun working your way to 35!! I have heard 33 States now on ULR....and man..they are getting Harder to find!! But...that's what makes it so much fun!! 73......ROB. Robert

Snagged KOA-850 Denver at 0600 Eastern thius morning on the SRF-59 barefoot for my 30th Ultralight State this morning. KOA was in the clear with a very good signal, at 1,539 miles. On to 35

Hi Guys: Tonight the conditions seemed quite good......and I was able to log 2 New Stations for the ULR Log....but Both were on 1570 Khz!! This frequency is a TOUGH ONE for me here ...as I live

Good luck with theDX locations, John! You weren'tkiddin' when you said it was visible on Google Earth. It sticks out like a sorethumb. I also looked at all the photos associated with the pier, and

HiTim, Actually, most ifnot all modern, portable AM radios have the same adjustment point. I'vemade the 1400 kHz trimmer adjustment on the SRF-T615, DT-200VX, and theE100 models, for example.

We've been in Peru for four days, having a great time seeingpre-Inca archeology on the North Coast and staying at Chiclayo. I've arranged through friends of friends (with a cousin or two thrown in)to

Today I purchased another SRF-59 at the Tallmadge (Ohio) K-Mart store. $14.99 + tax. And, they had 2 or 3 of them. So, I now have 2 good 59's, and my original one...with the

Hi John, Good luck on chasing the TP's and DU's tomorrow--or maybe down there they are UP's and HU's?? (Upper Pacifics and HereUnders). It will be very interesting to know what

Hi Tim, Alignment of the SRF-59 (or any portable) involvesthese steps: 1) Ensure standard frequency coverage of 520- 1750 kHz, and ensurethat the tuner's 530 kHz position matches that of the

Hi Dennis, Rob Ross and I are "war buddies" from the earliestdays of Ultralight radio DX, so we get a little enthusiastic when we talk toeach other. Back in December when the general

Hi Guys: Did some Late Night/Early Morning ULTRALIGHT DX'ing last night and logged a couple of Nice Catches plus another AERO BEACON!!! Since there are a few Aero Beacons very close to the start of
