I'm following a thread on a group with an argument about whether new AM radios are now mostly designed with a chip for the radio receive circuitry. Does anyone have a website with either a list of

Recently I have purchased a small A/B audio switch box, this is being used for direct audio / signal testing of various radios. I have mounted this in a small case and have run two 3.5mm audio

Thank you, Gary!

Hello Igvitk, Litz wire and ferrite optimized for the MW frequencies really isn't recommended for SW performance. Especially in a sharp-tuning FSL antenna, going outside the recommended frequency

Hi all! I was trying to make 3 inch FSL antenna for MW band, but I ordered less than necessary of AWG 250/46 litz, and did not get the required inductance (just 180 uh instead of 350 uh). As a result,

Portable Ultralight Radio DXing Case - March 2020 - An Update After building my latest case, I found a couple of issues. I needed to protect the screens and cases of my radios and I also had an

Paul, I was keen on radio as a child, inducted into the hobby by my father from the age of about 6. Whilst still at school, I applied for a monitoring position at the BBC’s Caversham Park site.

That sounds very interesting and something I would have loved to have done. Paul -- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX

Just curious to see if anyone else here has made a career of radio listening. I have been doing it professionally for about 40 years. I started out when I joined the US Army Security Agency and

Thanks for the info, Gary. I just got a very good deal on a GE Super Radio 1 so I'm hoping to get some good DX with it. I know its not UL, but at this point I can't afford to put a lot of money into

Hi Todd (and Michael), <<< I never knew how many MW FSL antennas you have stored at home. The development process seems to have gone through multiple iterations. There are enough FSLs to sell online

<<< I'm really interested in any "exotic" antenna that will work with my PL-600. Any ideas? Whats a ballpark price for the construction of one of the small FSL and are the materials readily

Now we know why many of us are receiving weak signals : Gary's FSL array is sucking in most of the RF energy :-) Michael UK ...

Hi all. To help both keep the main group "on topic" but also allow some more "social" interactions, especially with how the world is at the moment around COVID-19, I have created a sub group, it can

Hi Gary, I never knew how many MW FSL antennas you have stored at home. The development process seems to have gone through multiple iterations. There are enough FSLs to sell online as a business. I am

I'm really interested in any "exotic" antenna that will work with my PL-600. Any ideas? Whats a ballpark price for the construction of one of the small FSL and are the materials readily available?

I can not agree more. I love trying the different areas of the radio hobby and seeing what I can hear. You are an asset to the hobby and always bring new ideas.-- Paul - Moderator UltralightDX
