Howdy all, I'm a long time Ultralight DXer in Southern California, aided by my trusty Sony SRF-T615 and 7600GR; I've owned this pair for several years now and haven't seen the need for another radio,

My first post. Has anyone seen the massive Ferrite Rod Loop on You Tube and the writeup on: http://www.sarmento.eng.br/Loop_Ferrite_Rod_Antenna.htm This writeup includes the Videos. Apparently these

Cant wait to see the 1.5v designs, Phil! Anything above 3v should be outlawed as EHT :-) Michael

you're welcome Michael. building 1AD/2AD radios is economical and fun. some of my next designs run on 1.5 volts. regards, phil :)

Hi all it looks like a re-cased TECSUN R-9012 which is an EXC radio !!! DJBILLY On Mon, May 30, 2011 at 2:52 PM, dave_hackwell <dave_hackwell@...> wrote:

Welcome to the group and I look forward to dx reports on the little radio. Let's hear how it performs ? I've never heard of the name before but searching the net, it's common on mainland europe but

Hi Dan, welcome to the group, No, I've never heard of the "Denver" brand here in the USA. I agree, probably a re-badged Chinese model; looks very similar to the R-911, R-9012, etc. Regards, Keith

Hi! This is my first post here, what a nice group! I just got me a cheap little radio, a Denver TWR-804. Its AM, FM and SW band 1-7, and its easily available at many stores and supermarkets here in

Phil, thanks for these very useful links. Close to my qrp ideal! Budget problem solved : sell Tecsun, buy ferrite for FSL, build own super-uldx-rx :-) Michael

hi Michael, yes, the designs are located here: http://home.comcast.net/~phils_radio_designs/ this is Dave Schmarder's build-up of my Hellenedyne, with his

Phil, do you post your single tube(valve!)/transistor designs anywhere? Or do you know of websites that feature this aspect? Some would doubtless even fit the uldx dimensional requirements! Michael

Hello All, For the past few weeks several of us have been conducting detailed experimentation on large-scale FSL models (8" and 12" diameter), in a serious effort to discover the advantages of this

Should be getting on by the middle of this week. could not resist.

I love it--not a URL but otherwise just like the 380 feature-wise but with a considerably longer and more sensitive ferrite bar antenna

Speaking of the PL-390 I was wondering how you like it? Big Al N0CEK

hi Gary! i like the 4 kHz filter; offset-tuned by 3 kHz. yes, a slow-AGC is a big help. i agree, the DSP filters are nice. i use my PL-390 as a spotter. i am pretty hooked on designing single

Phil, What I meant to say is that the S/N meter doesn't work when offset tuned. The RSSI meter still works in this case. I tried using offset tuning with my PL-380 last night on SW. For me, the best

Sorry, I meant the ferrite sleeve antenna. Steve

Hello to All, Propagation from Europe last night was predominately Spanish stations as per logs below. 1 new station was added to the ULR log as BBC Ulster 1341 was either off air for a period of

thanks Gary. guessing: the signal meter may look in a specific region for the carrier amplitude. that's how my FFT-based program, PhilSCAN, worked. regards, phil
