RÚV Rás 1/Rás 2, Eiðar, Iceland 207 kHz on the Yaesu FRG-8800 & MegaLoop...

Hi there, here's a very clean signal from Eiðar, Iceland copied with the Yaesu FRG-8800 and Bonito NTi MegaLoop FX antenna. The FRG is a keeper, even though it has limitations, which are much more obvious now I have other, more sophisticated equipment in the shack. Nevertheless, this was the first communications receiver I wanted as a kid and that emotional attachment shows no signs of diminishing! That basically means in the near future I'll have to stump up the cash for a complete refurbishment in the way that I did for the FRG-7700....which is now good for another 40 years - hopefully!
