Those are some crazy power levels..... Our main TV / FM radio site here TX's like 193KW across the various services. Paul-- Paul

Some of Gary's FSL's would also fail the "light weight" scale ;)-- Paul

Hi Mark Yea, it doesn’t get much use now I have to admit! Well I ordered another AN-200 today, and also, just for fun, a Youloop passive. For £24 from Amazon I thought it was worth a try. Watch

Drifter, Looks like you're part of the ever growing list of v115 haters! I can also include myself in this list, I'm really not a big fan and only included it in my previous post because it's an

Choosing my next radio has been embarrassingly difficult for me. As I understand the UL guidelines, the radio should be less than $100 and less than 20 cubic inches. My radio now is a Tecsun

Hi Mark That’s very informative, thanks. It would appear you’re having more luck with your V-115 than I did, but on the up side, it was the radio that got me started! Mine wasn’t the Retekess,

What's so exceptional about that? At my location there are five 100 kW transmitters on the same mast, and across the border in Germany there are five 80 kW on one mast. Martin.

Hi all, Interesting (at least to me!) while FM DX'ing last night... I live in Michigan (USA) in a very southern area of the state. So I was surprised last night when I heard an FM Radio station is in

Hi Drifter, I'm using a Tecsun AN 200 loop. I've only tried tuning into 864 with the Radiwow R-108 and Retekess V115 ultralights' so far, both with great results. Radio Riyadh is also a great DX from

My own lightweight kit

Paul, I think you misunderstood the term lightweight 😊.

Over the past few months I have been looking at improving the way I carry my ultralight DXing kit. I started a new job in September which sees me more office bound at our CBD office and also working
