Radio Mosoj Chaski 3310 kHz, Bolivia copied on the JRC NRD535 and my amateur radio end-fed wire

Hi there, great to copy audio again from Bolivia on my end-fed wire I use for my amateur radio activities. I think this set-up was actually working slightly better than my Wellbrook loop that evening. The signal picks up as the recording progresses. Recorded in Oxford UK on 13/06/26 at 00:07 hrs UTC. Thanks for watching and 73.

Hi there, it's been a long time since I copied a Voice of Korea KCBS transmission...and I didn't expect it to be on the 19m band at midnight. Recorded in Oxford on 03/06/26 using a Yaesu FRG-8800 and Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop via an NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

Hi there, I love a hot day in Autumn and the 1st of October 2026 in Oxford UK was that day. Nothing better than to soak up the sunshine and have a tune through the shortwave bands with the brilliant MLite-880 coupled to my end-fed wire antenna. Thanks for watching and 73.

The Tecsun S2200x stands up well against the JRC NRD535 on recovered audio: WMLK Bethel on 15150 kHz

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x56qDUPAYIM

Hi there, the Tecsun performs as well as the NRD535 on this (albeit) quite strong daylight signal from Pennsylvania. Let me know what you think - note I am using the same antenna for both radios. Recorded in Oxford UK on 29/08/26 at 15:20 UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop via an NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

Indoor reception of the BBC World Service on 17640 kHz shortwave using the S2200x telescopic antenna

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edP6qZbM3fg

Hi there, I always listen to the football on the Radio on a Saturday and Sunday afternoon.....and of course it has to be medium wave AM! Whilst doing so last weekend, I wondered whether it would be possible to copy the same broadcast on shortwave via the World Service, with an indoor antenna...turns out it was! Recorded on 13/09/26 at 16:49 hrs UTC. Thanks for watching and 73.
