Hi there, a decent afternoon signal from the DPRK closing down their Russian Service. I've not listened out for the Voice of Korea for some time, but here they are again, still going on shortwave. Recorded in Oxford UK on 08/05/26 at 15:55 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna. Thanks for watching and 73.

Some nice signals being copied with the excellent S2200x. It's just a great all-round radio for broadcast listening, utility signals and DX. Highly recommended. Thanks for watching and 73.

Hi there, having copied this station on the Malahit DSP2, I decided to have a go with the FRG8800 - and here it is. What a great rig and still going strong after all these years. Recorded in Oxford UK on 30/04/25 at 23:03 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna (outdoors) via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

It doesn't get much better than this, although my good friend tells me there is another Hacker model (the Herald I think) with a slightly larger speaker than the Super Sovereign. My goodness that radio must sound good, because the audio from this one is epic. Thanks for watching and 73

Hi there, a nice signal from North Korea on the 19m band copied with the NRD535. I'm not sure how different the 525 and 535 are, but the 525 wins on dynamic range, whist the 535 has better filters and front end. Either way, a very similar experience! Recorded in Oxford UK on 05/06/26 at 12:59 hrs UTC using a Bonito MegaLoop FX antenna via a GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.
