I think 15-1853 refers to the original Radio Shack AM loop antenna, not to the Grundig/Kaito/Tecsun AN200, which looks like this: http://www.amazon.com/Kaito--200-Tunable-Passive-Antenna/dp/B001PNNXGO

This is pretty amazing. Nice work.

Hi Neil, I'm not aware of a "headphone antenna mode" with the PL-380. Maybe it's some kind of design flaw. Regards, Gary

Hi Ginger, The problem happens only with the clip-on antenna, and only on shortwave. I tried using a stereo to mono adapter (stereo on the headphone side, mono on the radio side), but this made no dif

Hello all, I like listen to shortwave with my PL-380. I find that clipping the Sony wind-up antenna (that came with my 7600GR) to the PL-380 whip produces much more signal strength, and allows ETM to

Jay, Maybe this Goggle Earth add on will be of interest to you: http://www.fccinfo.com/fccinfo_google_earth.php Regards, Gary

Hi Jay, Is it possible that your PL-390 is defective? Years ago, my friend and I both bought Grundig Sat 800 radios during a $200 blowout sale. Mine was far more sensitive than his on MW AM, using the

Hi Jay, You've got me curious about this. I believe Kevin S. reported that his PL-390 is more sensitive on MW AM than his 7600GR. Your T615 is more sensitive than your PL-390. Does it follow that a T6

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 c

Thanks, Phil. I especially enjoyed your article "Si4734 Offset Tuning." I'm going to give these techniques a try on my PL-380. It's too bad the signal meter isn't functional when doing offset tuning.

I like my DT-400W too, Jay. It's not nearly as sensitive or selective as my PL-380, but then again, it doesn't have phantom hets all over the MW band. It's a very "clean" receiver, as many of the Sang

It looks like a PL-390 with an MP3 player added. http://herculodge.typepad.com/herculodge/2011/05/pablo-brings-us-photos-of-the-new-tecsun-pl-398-radio-with-mp3.html

More info on the PL-606 alarm. http://my.opera.com/markrobt/blog/2011/02/18/a-tecsun-pl-606-quirk

Apparently the PL-606 does not have a beeper/buzzer alarm. http://my.opera.com/markrobt/blog/2011/02/19/alarming-radio-information

Hi Jamie, I can't comment about the PL-660 specifically, since I don't own one. I can tell you that on my PL-380 the section of the whip antenna below the pivot point does not appear to pull out from

Hello all, This free e-book on LF and HF propagation was mentioned in Kevin Carey's "Below 500 kHz" column in the April "Monitoring Times." I thought some of you might find it useful. http://g0kya.blo
