One of my complaints about the SRF-59 receiver has been the difficult to use tuning knob. Looking at the SRF-39FP, it was evident more of its tuning knob was exposed. So I decided to see if I could

Hi Kevin, Your "ultralight loop" sounds great. Maybe you should go into business selling them. Can you post a picture of it next to an E100 or a DT-200VX (for scale)? And thanks for the tip on using

WOW...amazing stuff Alan!!! We're gonna have to change the Award Name to the "ALAN WILLIE 10 Day Challenge!!". I haven't done too much AM BCB Dxing yet this Season....as the FM Band has been going

Hi Everyone, Spent the last 3 days out of the city at Old Perlican, Newfoundland and was able to DX with the Ultralights in a location away from the powerhouse stations of St. John's. The last

Ron, In certain climates (like our crazy climate here in Houston), wouldn't static buildup/discharge be a concern with the cotton and the plastic case rubbing/ sliding together? I'd be afraid I'd

Hey Gary: I've got the Quantum Stick as well - very nice for travel, and LW to boot, plus it acts as a coupler. As you say, for some reason it doesn't seem to do much for certain receivers - I get

my quite inexpensive solution to the case problem has been solved by utilizing some old half socks that are too worn for wearing but make a nice cotton cocoon for these little radios and pack nicely

Hello all, As another alternative "portable" MW antenna for ultralights, the Quantum Q-Stick works well with the DT-200VX (and presumably with the DT-400W). Unfortunately, it doesn't do much at all

I did not finish a sentence: similar to a hair better selectivity, adjacent channel rejection on the 200 as compared to the 400.

I got my new DT-400W today. Initial daytime test during work break suggests similar head to head performance compared to the DT-200VX. The 400 is slightly more sensitive than the 200 above about 1550

Hi Dennis, I bought my Fry's refurb E10 in August 2007. Other than a "jumpy" tuning knob, similar to that on my E100, I'm pretty happy with it. I generally use external chargers for all of my

The DT-400W that I ordered from NewEgg came today. I plan to use the new one as a spare, in case my original one decides to go bonkers. I will, however, set it up and use it, but just not all the

Hi all: I just posted a couple photos of a recent project on the UltraLight DX Yahoo group. I recently got a high-Q basketweave loop on eBay from the seller "noseknowsnose". It's a 3.5" Litz coil

Hello Richard, Thanks for your comments on your newDT-400W. Actually, the DT-400W's usual strong point is good sensitivityall across the band, not that it is far more sensitive than most

Yesterday morning(Sept.1,2008) i made a nice new ULR log on the Sony SRF-M37V.KFYI-550-Phoenix,Az was in from 0708-0712 CDT with i.d. and Bruce Jacobs(?) morning show and talk about hurricane

Guten tag, Olaf! It's nice to hear how European UltraLighters are doing. WEGP runs 5,000 watts, so nice catch! Kevin S Bainbridge Island, WA

Hello Olaf, Congratulations on your logging of WEGP-1390 inMaine, using your SRF-59 inside the passive loop in northwest Germany. Weall are impressed at your logging, and greatly appreciate

Hello to the group! Nothing special for most of you but today in the morning (4:45UTC) I got WEGP/Maine on 1390kHz with an SRF-59 laid inside my 1m-passive loop here in northwestern Germany. Around

I've never needed to resort to an external charger after that first time when the voltage was so low the radio couldn't charge them. Gary - how long have you had your Fry's refurb E10? I got mine

Hello all, Has anyone found a nice compact case for the DT-200VX or DT-400W? I wish Sangean would have included one as they do with some of their other radios. Regards, Gary
