Default House Wiring A Good Antenna...

....for the low end of the SW range.

My old mobilehome is metal-sheathed. For my DX-392, I use my old ham antenna,
common-fed 40 and 20 inverted vees. When I use, for convenience, my eTR7 in the
dining area or bathroom, I connect a cliplead between the radio's whip and a
wrought iron light fixture.

I've noticed that, on 3210 kHz, the eTR7 gets better reception than does my
DX-392. Hi

Of course, whenever I use the eTR7 inside, I have to shut off my computer's
monitor. (It should need an FCC license.)
