Dear folks, Gary's mating of a large ferrite bar to the SRF-59 would be highly desirable. Like another earlier post, I shy away from opening radios as "disaster would be sure to follw". I am including

Hi John, Do you know if this filter would improve selectivity on the larger SANGEAN PR-D5 without suffering an insertion sensitivity loss? Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mo

There is a store in downtown Laredo, TX selling refurbished 59s...my small sample suggests that the refurbished units are not brought up to intended specs...i tried a nearly deaf unit in the store, an

SRF-59 May 5, 2008 1:00 am XEWN 1270 KHz 150 watts 708 miles from Laredo. Solid id of station call. Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.

I have noticed that the E100's display is off by 1 KHz...to correctly tune 640 KHz, one would have to tune in on 641 KHz. This is true on sw frequencies as well. Perhaps this explains the disapperance

"The music to my ears, though, was hearing them go to ABC News at 1230, with an ID as "ABC ADELAIDE!" After that, I had a brief celebration, dancing around the campfire, shouting various Chickasaw war

"I did get one opportunity to compare the 12" x 1" ferrite booster bar to directly connecting the Ultralight radio to the Wellbrook array. I couldn't hear any audio at all on 891 with the ferrite, whi

Hi folks, I have the new Grundig G6. It is the same size as the E100. It has ssb which I guess disqualifies the set from the ultralights (although it cetainly is "ultralight"!). In any case, I find th

KLRD (50 KW) 1080 KHz was off the air last night...as result, coast to coast faded in several times on my SRF-59 in Laredo, TX from KSCO, Santa Cruz, CA, 5 KW, 1458 miles away!

Something of a record for me...I have heard both coasts via relatively modest 5 KW stations on my SRF-59 over the past 2 nights.: Wed night-1080 KHz KSCO Santa Cruz, CA (KRLD 1080 50 KW off the air!)

I notice that both my digital SANGEAN PR-D5 and my analog SONY ICF-S5W and EX5 all can be tuned to a given frequency, and then used to boost a signal significantly on an ultralight tuned to the same f

Dear folks, My Grundig G6 is identical in size to the E100. That it has ssb apparently disqualifies it as an ultralight...perhaps this can be reconsidered. In any case, it is a tad less sensitive (day

Hello Is anybody familiar with the SONY E10W from about 1984? It is slightly smaller than the SRF-59, is speakerless, and is mono (and as result, came with a nice earpiece for one ear. It has an analo

Here's a handy lookup and distance calculator in one! http://topazdesigns.com/ambc/

I got my new DT-400W today. Initial daytime test during work break suggests similar head to head performance compared to the DT-200VX. The 400 is slightly more sensitive than the 200 above about 1550

I did not finish a sentence: similar to a hair better selectivity, adjacent channel rejection on the 200 as compared to the 400.
