S.O.S... going NUTS over reception problems
wrote:
I'm not an avid shortwaver by any stretch, I had a good
time with a hand held a few years back and had it stolen in Mexico.
I recently have purchased a Sangean ATS 909, all I've read were good
reviews.
Can someone help diagnose my troubles he
I can hardly pick up ANYTHING. I can search through 2MHz to 30 MHz all
day
and night and pick up 3 or 4 transmissions.
I have just bought an external antenna to see if that'd help, it's an
EMF antenna,
a good one.
STILL NOTHING. What the hell? I live in Philadelphia in a 3rd floor
apartment, nothing
out of the ordinary in terms of interference... is it my equipment?
Should I contact Sangean?
Please inform.
Thanks,
Xan
Try the WWV stuff on 5,10,15, etc and see if you can hear the time,
that will add a few to your list. Google inside antenna's should help
some also.
