Telamon:

Don't take offense to Richard, believe it or not, I have kinda grown to like his banter, do you like Shakespeare? Richard does that to... all joking aside, Richard is ok, he is just different...

But, thanks for your post... I am glad others have "wondered" my "wonders" and experimented as I...

Warmest regards,
John

Snip

He responded to your post that way because you are full of it. Most of
what you posted is either wrong, off topic or unhelpful. Take your
pick.

Just about anyone reading rec.radio.shortwave has connected some wire
to a portable radio and gotten an improvement in being able to hear a
weak signal.

About the only right, on topic comment you made out of a long post was
about signal to noise being most important factor in the receiving
antenna system.

AND...

I'm not somebody's old wife.

I'm not a CB'er.

I have a clear head.

I understand how BALUNs work.

I did not imagine it or indulge in wishful thinking and the improvement
wasn't just by chance.

I'm not waiting to buy a Chinese portable.

I understand the economics of electronic engineering.

Since most of your 119 line post is pure disregard for anyone else's
experience or opinion I may have missed some.

If you can't make a non condescending on topic post then go away please.
