I would immediately move away from Outlook Express. Of all of the email software I have used it is both the most limited in function and the most susceptible to hackers/spammers. I find that GMail has

A similar discussion was had a few months ago on another list I'm on. I have gonre back to the older version of Yahoo Mail on all of my accounts and avoid the problems. 1. Go into your browser and int

I currently have MS Security Essentials on this machine and I just tried it and didn't receive any such alerts.... Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w

That's the one I mostly use, although I've seen some other mentioned. Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w/ APS9B @15'; Grundig G8 AM: Modified Sony IC

As a counterpoint to some of the recent discussion, check this. Revenues may be up one year over a prior, but that doesn't mean the overall trend is up. Similarly, for many listeners, there aren't man

For our annual DXpedition at Long Beach Island, NJ, we use a fan of 3-4 wires of 15' or so length fanned out through a similar resistance. This is on the beach on sand, so the conductivity is likely d

You have two problems with that - the one you stated, which I think is valid, and the one you didn't mention, which is breaks in the wire. At the annual Long beach Island ( NJ ) DXpedition we've repea

However that would compromise the directivity of the antenna. Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w/ APS9B @15'; Grundig G8 AM: Modified Sony ICF 2010's

One wouldn't anticipate lightning strikes during the winter months. Keeping the radio disconnected and the wire adequately grounded when not in use should help that. But you were probably more interes

I never used the batteries which came with my 310 because, like you, I couldn't figure out which type they were. I just put two fresh alkalines in it and went from there. My G8 sure doesn't eat batter

See Marc's answer and my response. The manual is somewhat incomplete. Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w/ APS9B @15'; Grundig G8 AM: Modified Sony IC

I had purchased my PL-310 mostly for FM DX, and have found it to be one of the least intuitive radios I've ever owned, and often the manual is of no help. Before I come to the conclusion that I got a

If it's essentially the Sangean DT200vx, which I have, it is deaf on LW, as it has a very small internal antenna. Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w/

For what it's worth, I have a Grundig G8 on which I've heard only one NDB - RNB on 363 in NJ. That's also the only NDB I've heard on my Sony 2010 with close to 3 times as much antenna in it. I don't h

The USB cable should be for providing power or charging. It isn't intended for recording. To record directly you will need to have recording software on your computer, and then simply connecting an au

I wouldn't be concerned about the overseas sellers necessarily. I recently purchased a PL-310 from eBay seller 'it.box' in Hong Kong and had it in less than 2 weeks, and at a good price. Russ Edmunds

Most commercially-available surge protectors - especially the multi-outlet strips - aren't worth whatever they cost. Been there, done that. If lightning is coming, unplug everything. Russ Edmunds 15 m

Extra adapter, in series with the first one. I realize that in theory it shouldn't work as well as it did, but that was what happened. Eventually, when I got a new router, I didn't need the extra one.
