I looked at the links regarding radial antennas. It looks like they are directional off the end away from the connection to the radio, and a ground is provided at the same end as the feed to the

What two things are connected to the pair of brown wires/zip cord at the antenna end? If a matching Xfmr is used, what two things are connected to that? I guess what I am asking, are two radials

Hi Group, HLAZ-1566 kHz was heard a couple of days ago, on my 7.5" MW loopstick PL-380. Amazing signal at times, as a local, despite the 9780 km between Jeju and my location in south France ! Have a

Hello All, The TP conditions here this morning were almost identical to those reported by Dennis (including the thunderstorms). Feeble audio came through from 594-JOAK, 747-JOIB, 828-JOBB, 972-HLCA,

And don't forget me out here in Colorado. I am even further from the ocean than Richard and I regularly receive various LW stations when the thunderstorms are gone and the auroras are low. I have

<<< Gary, it is now up to you to produce a Super-LW-FSL which is a bit more portable, more compact and more lightweight than a few megatons of wet sand - which would sadly exclude a sneaky

This could easily turn into a very long post but I'll keep it brief. I have used 4 350 foot long BOGs for about 10 years here in the southwestern NC mountains. I do not use coax for my lead in and

We DX from a motel room or two. Only the antennas are outside. FSL could go inside. Most common are what you would expect, 162, 171, 183, 189, 198, 216, 234, 252. 171 and 252 tend to be both Europe

Sounds good, Russ ! Which stations do you receive most regularly? Gary, it is now up to you to produce a Super-LW-FSL which is a bit more portable, more compact and more lightweight than a few

We routinely get numerous LW TA's at our annual Long Beach Island ( NJ ) DXpedition. We use an 800' BOG on the sand, terminated and aimed up the coastline at about 38 degrees, and also a couple of

Hi Michael, <<< LW via TA does happen, but it will surely test your BOG. I look forward to future reports. >>> Longwave TA's on the East Coast of North America should be fairly routine during

Sorry, I was a bit hasty on the keypad, Farmerik! This link gives you a full listing of LW stations:- http://www.mediumwaveradio.com/longwave.php Some are directional at night or at lower power so

Michael- Thanks, I made a note of all those in my log to search for. Last time I was searching for one BBC and one Ireland freq, and they were just below 200 and somewhere near 250 I think. Your

At 500', the directional effects will not be so severe that you shouldn't terminate at the far end. This will enhance European signals but only somewhat diminish more distance inland signals. This can

From what I have read 500 feet is pretty short for AM and not so highly directional, which I want for a permanent antenna. For most of the USA from CT, I'll be using the 'back' of this ENE BOG. The

I think it is solid, but I see they have stranded now, and that is what I would prefer, and use if I run another BOG South East and terminate it for AM from most of the USA. from Connecticut. If this
