Thanks Dan. I have 7FG on 1161Khz which is 1KW, I will see how I go with nulling it out. I will also check out 963Khz. -- Paul

Good logging's there. The Adelaide one's seem to come in fairly well here too. I'll have to try logging 5CK & 5MV here too. Some others you may be able to log may be 5SE on 963Khz, A commercial

That's a good catch. It is an interesting station. It usually comes in here reliably at night. And when I was in Sydney in 2011 it boomed in at night as a local strength signal. Dan.

Thank you Paul.

Nice log Richard.

I logged the following new station using a barefoot SRF-T615 receiver. Friday, 4 December 2020 1360 kHz KRKK, Rock Spring WY (1 kW @ 1174 km/730 mi). Heard at 0217-0251 UTC with an ad for

Hi, Peter (DXChannel) has extensively tested the Tecsun PL-390 and also PL-398. The three-part unboxing video can be viewed here: PL-398MP unboxing Part 1 PL-398MP unboxing Part 1 In the forums (DX

I’ve been considering the purchase of the Tecsun PL-398mp DSP so this modification really intrigues me. Can you provide some more details? As the kids say, “Pix or it didn’t happen.” :-)

Over the past few weeks I have been focusing on logging stations from South Australia, these are all between 1000 - 1300 km away. From my attempts so far, just after our local sun set seems to produce

Very true and something that people have said to me in the past, we love the hobby and it does take us all in different directions. Paul -- Paul

Hi Jay, I agree that it is more interesting to actually receive radio broadcasts over the air. But I have found that I often hear something over the air, that I want to listen to, that is on a

I have to laugh about the term ultralight, Paul! While the radio itself is shirt pocket sized, the accessories we attach make this not so light at all!. Kind of like making a DX/Contest grade crystal

Thanks for the excellent reply Bruce and your thoughts on where radio is going. It is great that you had a radio in your classroom and tried to get some students interested. Sadly I don't see this

I have a brand new Tecsun PL-880 purchased 3 1/2 weeks ago for a family member as a gift which did not work out. Bought from Miss Anna at Anon. Latest firmware 8820. Asking $149.00 with free

I'm primarily a silent member (or "lurker" as some might say) in the Ultralight group. However, I am an active hard-core medium wave broadcast DX'er. I'm also 62 years old, therefore part of the

i am physically disabled so building things are kinda difficult but I will have to ask some one to try building me one

The owner of this group is the brains behind these and has written a lot about them. Paul
