Mini DXpedition to Jayne's Hill Long Island
An updated version of the D96L would be great! However, as I work with these radios and read about the Tecsun models, I can't help but wonder what the DE1123 would be with a larger loopstick, and acce

Degen PL1126
Gary, a few questions about the 1126 I'm wondering if the bleed through is as bad as my Kchibo D96L Does it fix the DE1123 issues with having to record on Max-Volume? How is the default bandwidth on A

Strange problem with PL-380
I have seen portable radios that would automatically switch to 'headphone-antenna-mode' when I plugged headphones in. This was usually only on FM, but I'm guessing that is what's happening here. Someh

Strange problem with PL-380
If there's some sort of headphone-to-antenna coupling there I suppose it could be wired wrong. Shorting something out maybe? I'll be getting a 390 soon, I'll have to crack it open and see if there is

BSR earbuds?
I also have a pair of the Sonys like this. Nice to see DAK. I forgot that Drew got it running again. I have BOTH of the DAK SW radios that came out years ago. They were pretty awful, but for the price

BSR earbuds?
These are similar, and have gotten rave reviews. They look like they roll off of the same assembly line: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320683073447&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_126

I used to drive past one of the Sony outlets (Woodbury Commons) on my way upstate quite often and was surprised at how far they marked things down. This is where my M37V came from. Most "outlet" store

SRF-59 (refurb) at SONY Outlet $9.99
SONY Outlet in the Tanger Outlets at Riverhead here on Long Island had a pile of ICF M37W radios w/headphones for 19.99 yesterday. Nothing else of interest to ULDX except maybe earbuds and headphones

NO AC Adapter Included with Purchase of Tecsun PL 380?
Mini B to standard USB cables are quite common even though the new standard is Micro B, and can be found even at the dollar stores. Also, stores like WalMart carry universal cellphone chargers with Mi
