've never seen a more impressive temporary antenna set-up, anywhere lol. I thought it worth of a few words of praise! Thanks for watching and 73.

I plan to record a series of videos on how to copy DX with a cheap radio/indoor magnetic loop set up

Hi there, I think it would be interesting to figure out whether it is possible to copy real DX with a £20 passive magnetic loop - indoors, coupled to a modestly priced radio - such as the PL-368, for example. Here I describe the idea whilst enjoying the sunshine and warm weather on the 4th of October in Oxford, UK. Thanks for watching and 73.

Hi there, another copy of Radio Tarma, this time with multiple IDs after the hour. Hearing these guys never gets old! Recorded in Oxford UK on 17/06/26 at 00:58 hrs UTC using an end-fed long wire antenna. Thanks for watching and 73.

HCJB Voice of Andes 6050 kHz Ecuador, recorded on the JRC NRD535 using my amateur radio end-fed wire

Hi there, here is readable audio from Ecuador on my end-fed wire antenna, coupled to the NRD535. What a brilliant set-up. The wire is working really well on South American DX right now. Recorded in Oxford UK on 13/06/26 at 00:19 hrs UTC. Thanks for watching and 73.

More bad news for longwave: Medi 1 from Nador, Morocco, on 171 kHz closed permanently

Hi there, very sad to report we will never hear Morocco on 171 kHz again. They have been absent from the longwave band for a few weeks ago and the inevitable has now been confirmed. That just leaves Romania, Poland and Algeria in or near Europe and Mongolia which is almost impossible to catch from my QTH. Thanks for watching and 73.

September 30th sunshine, MLite-880 v1.59 firmware and a 15 quid preamp for my passive magnetic loop

Hi there, I'm still enjoying the late September sunshine and warmth - it was about 23 degrees today but the sun felt hot! I can still pretend it's summer lol. A bit more on the MLite-880 with an update to the firmware and a cheap amplifier for my passive loop that only cost 15 quid, so it sort of doesn't matter if it doesn't work very well! Thanks for watching and 73.

MLite-880: intial testing on sideband with a tune up and down the 40m amateur radio band

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm8aB4GHdOo

Hi there, managed to copy a few signals around 7 MHz...the frequency display is actually very accurate, only a few Hz out - and I believe it can be adjusted. Overall, this radio has been a good experience thus far. Recorded around 14:20 hrs UTC in Oxford UK using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna (outdoors). Thanks for watching and 73.
