Yes the antenna I had was not the best but that was not really what I was
dissatisfied with. I dunno... there's just something about spinning
dial/knobs on a real radio. Spinning knobs via mouse just seemed a little
odd. Of course there are a lot more functions and versatility with a
computer aided radio. Oh yeah... talk about a nice, big, easy to read
display... There are none better.
What type of antenna are you using on your 320? Correct me if I'm wrong but
I thing the only difference between the 320 and the 320D is that the D is
DRM capable. Not a big deal in my book. Maybe I could find a deal on a used
320 on Ebay...
Is the 320 your primary/only SW radio?
No. I sometimes get attacks of the 'spinning dial/knobs on a real radio'
syndrome. My latest new (to me) radio is a well maintained Kenwood
R1000. Some of the other sets include a Zenith Trans Oceanic R7000,
Sangean 909 and RS 398, Yaesu FRG 9600, FRG 7 and a Kenwood R2000.
They're all fun and get rotated into usage when the urge moves me.
I have a straight 100 foot (30 meter, approx) antenna about seventeen
feet off the ground and oriented in a north/south direction. Coaxial
lead in.
