Glad you appreciate the advice...

- Just saw " Lost In Translation"

And am still resonant from its effects..

Antenna is as important as a radio - How true indeed !!
I connected 15 ft of wire to my Grundig FR - 200 and was able to get
India on 31 meter band without any fading . I probably need to buy a
reel antenna and be happy with it's performance .

GREAT advice DAN .

There was probably a lost post suggesting he buy a Watkins Johnson
but nevermind...

ANY shortwave receiver is better than None
$29 . 95/100,
- Analogue, single reduction, creaky when you tune it
Stuck together with candle wax.
- Hook enough antenna wire to it & your up & running,
picking up stuff from
the other side of the surface of the earth..

Just MHO
others will strongly disagree
