Hi Guy, Thanks for your comments on the 'Top Ten" DU recordings from the Cape! <<< After listening to your recordings from the Cape Perpetua cliff, I was left shaking my head in amazement. As

With increasing awareness of the potential effect of solar or inimical EMP or cyber-mischief on global digital networks, it might be indicated to keep AM and AM receivers in active or

As previously posted, I muse that the wire-netting holding the rockface in place might just possibly conceivably potentially unbelievably disputably make some, be it infinitessimal, contribution to

Richard, Thanks very much for your comments on the recent DXpeditions. <<< I still hope to hear audio from a DU someday. No hets have been heard from that direction since the spring equinox.

Also, Get Off My Lawn! :-) You're right, of course, and I'm not sure they would even bother with something like iHeartradio because the same device has 2000 of their favorite songs available

Hello To All I took a few moments and gave another listen to all the great MP3's from Gary DeBock's Cape Perpetua Ultralight DXing experience on the Oregon coast. Amazing receptions from those

Hi Gary, After listening to your recordings from the Cape Perpetua cliff, I was left shaking my head in amazement. As you know, I was DXing at the very same spot one morning during the "Deja-Vu"

Keith: Those were my thoughts as I typed my earlier comments. I'm not sure the youngsters of today know what a radio receiver is. They already carry around a smartphone or device capable of

Hi Russ.. if memory serves, your HR10 comments/review in DXN 'way back when, got me interested in the set--bought 1 from a guy in San Diego (1972?), loaned it to my girlfriend (it got swiped out of

Hi Gary.. "ULR-DXer" works fine for me (call me anything ya like, just not late for dinner)..i used "ULR-ians" just for funnies (i've got 'way too much free time, obviously). Dan WB6FJD

Hello To All, Early this morning propagation favored signals from the west here in the "Hope". WCCO in Minnesota was heard under WCRN on 830, WXYT 1270 Detroit under CJCB in Nova Scotia and a new

I listened for a few minutes at local sunrise (1154 GMT). The only signal heard was a weak carrier (het) on 702 kHz from approx. 235° at 1153-1158, presumely 2BL. It was strongest at 1155, fading

This particular test only hits one aspect. It doesn't give any indication as to what would occur with co-channel digital stations or adjacent channels. When I look at the number of AM stations vs TV,

Hello Rob, Michael, Mark, and Dan, After just getting back from one of the wildest and wackiest DU-DXpeditions ever attempted on the west coast, I'm afraid that the best suggestion that I can offer

How about "UL-DXer" - a bit easer on the tongue, perhaps. The comparable abbreviations do not include an "R" for "radio". Somebody in this houshold suggested "UL-Nutter", but that was quoshed by

I occasionally listen to the DRM digital broadcasts of Radio New Zealand International on the short wave band. Their signal is usually crystal clear here, but whenever the signal strength drops there
