Paul, I'm going to show my stupidity about radio station call signs in your part of the world, but my curiosity has got the best of me. Here in the US the FCC closely follows the

With more Ultralight radios now including the VHF Airband. I have written a short guide to this and posted the link below. I hope overtime to see this group to expand to include ALL radio listening

Hi Paul, Setting the clock, fast/slow tuning.  I have downloaded the manual and have found some answers.  Just need longer to read it. Not sure how old the radio is but it looks immaculate, like

Hi. I have one of these. What are you having trouble getting to work? They are sold by Jaycar. -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Hi Folks, I picked up this radio at op shop (Thrift store) yesterday. Seems to be small enough but not sure if it qualifies otherwise. I think this was a Dick Smith item before they went bust.

Thanks Vincenzo...that is very gratifying to hear. Jay

Thanks! Lots of info for me to study and attempt to understand. In a file on this group it was mentioned the 2 Polydoroff windings over interrupted ferrite cylinders resulted in very strong nulls

Thanks for the information and confirming that it does scan on the air and. I will need to get one when I can. -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Richard, Modern DSP chips (SiLabs 4734, 4735 etc.) work well with any coil inductance from 180-450 uH (or even more), so as long as the loopstick coil inductance is within this range, the number of

I use the Skywave radios from CCrane and an HXDATA D-808 to scan the air band. I live across the bay from NYC and hear huge amounts of air traffic with these receivers. I got the tiny little HanRongDa

Thanks. I will make use of it for single frequency listening.-- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Thanks Gary. I just ordered some. Do you think the additional turns of Litz are mostly responsible for improved performance? Could you detect any difference in Q by using that radio? [or by any other

No it doesn't scan the airband. Mainly good for monitoring one freq at a time.

Early antenna experimentation in our Ultralight Radio group was based on quite a few principles borrowed from the Crystal Radio community, especially relating to High-Q Litz wire coils. Most crystal

Following some feedback directly, I have made some changes to this. https://tassieradiorxer.blogspot.com/2019/02/going-paperless-for-radio-rxing.html -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Huge fan of your page, Jay. I follow it religiously.

Thanks to everybody who has taken the time to answer the survey, the results so far are very interesting. While I am hopeful that what we are doing is "working" for the group members as a whole, it is

Thanks for the reply. A SDR is outside the scope of this group and not what I am trying to do, which is push these radios as much as I can on the Airband. -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX
