Hi Phil and thanks for your comment.. I have here the Sangean ATS 909X, not bad but not so sensitive.. But the problem here is that listening to broadcasts, there is much noise in the (office)

If it's like the 660 you can hold down the light button while the radio is on and it will cycle through slow, fast, fast slow choices. The fast slow choice is the so-called "intelligent" step mode

I have the 380, modified with an external larger sleeve antenna.... Works great. I'm still working on an external antenna for SW... AM is great. Better sensitivity with the external antenna. I like

The DE1103 does not qualify as an ultralight receiver, so don't get it if you're looking specifically for an ultralight receiver. But if you're just looking for a good portable receiver I would

Hello All, First of all, it was a great honor (honour) to join Guy Atkins in welcoming fellow die-hard TP-chasing fanatic Nick Hall-Patch to Puyallup this afternoon. Nick's visit (along with Chuck,

Hi.. I am looking for a receiver like the Tecsun PL-380 or 390 But also think about a DE1103 I have read many good reviews. I like to know if the 380 is worth buying, and how it handles with noise

Hello All, Asian results here this morning were no better than those reported by Dennis or Nigel as the TP's seemed to be stuck in anemia. Even an earlier start time (1145 UTC) failed to produce any

You're going to need something that gives you the ability to put a band stop filter in between your antenna and your radio. Clifton Labs sells them or you can certainly build your own. That still may

If you need a way to minimise the ferrite signal,you may try Tecsun PL360 with plug in ferrite antenna; or CC-EP RADIO which has a switchable internal ferrite option,just my 2 cents .

Poor performance on the BCB. That's pretty relative. I had a high school FM radio station transmitter that was supposedly well filtered. Still, it was very possible for all the attached wiring and

Thank you to all who responded to my question. I have a clearer picture now. It came about because I live within 5Km of a number of high power transmitters, including the famous 5AN, and a lot of the

To expand on that nice description: Field strength and receiver sensitivity and receiver meter readings are different animals. Receiver sensitivity is just one way to rate how a receiver will "hear" a

Hi Phillips, Millivots per meter (mV/m) is a way of defining a station's expected (or measured) field strength at a receiving location. It matters little whether that signal is ultimately impressed on

Hello All, After reading Nick's long report of vibrant TP's from 1130-1300 yesterday it certainly seemed like my lackluster sunrise enhancement session (after 1300) got the short end of the

I am still trying to get my cotton wool stuffed brain around this parameter. Does this parameter only apply to receivers with ferrite antennas? Is this the "missing" piece of the puzzle that has

Congrats! ... and ditto. Hearing Voice of Russia from Grigoriopol, Moldova on 1413 KHz now at 19:30 UTC which is about 1100 miles from my QTH. Have a PL-310 on order but it has not arrived so this

I've managed to log a new medium wave station. 8/31/14 1239 GMT 750 kHz KSEO, Durant OK (0.22 kW @ 276 km/172 mi). Heard by chance while listening to KMMJ, Lexington NE, with a promo for the

My bad. Sometimes my OCD gets in the way. I initially read it as dBu minus dBµV/m and my brain immediately got stuck. -- Bruce Conti B.A.Conti Photography www.baconti.com ¡BAMLog! www.bamlog.com

Hello All, The Asians seem to be a little slow in getting out of the gate this season, and their performance this morning followed the same lackluster pattern. With the exception of 972-HLCA and a

Thank you, Bill... very comfortably confusing. Actually, pretty nicely explained. Joe Rotello / Knoxville, TN / USA
