ah.

Anyway, back to the whip. The amp and whip form an active antenna which
works pretty well. You won't get nearly the sensitivity off the same whip
connected to the 50 ohm input of the radio. But it sounds like you might
not be using it that way anyway.

Lowe will sell the whip amp for the HF250, which can be adapted to the
HF225. You'll have to find someone outside of the US to buy it and send it
to you, though.

How about the sync detector? Did your HF225 come with that?

There was. I had the Europa version of the radio, which I bought new in
the '90s (I never should have sold it) and which came with a 120V wall
wart.
