Hey Mike, are your reel and long wires outside or inside?


Both the ones listed in the Sept 8 logs were externally-located. I
also have a number of active and internal antennas inside my home,
including a nice dipole up in the attic that I usually use with the
Icom R75.

How you doing, Mike?

Pretty well Mike, you? I build a cabin in Wisc. last summer and I'm looking
to get some kind of SW antenna hooked up. I have a 10-80 dipole and a 100 ft
longwire sitting around and not sure what to put up. Will be used on either
a ratshack Dx394 or a Dx392.

I've tried using my Grundig reel antenna with not very good results on
either radio.
