Wrong Wolverine Radio. This Wolverine Radio is found on SHORTWAVE RADIO:

I heard Wolverine Radio on THE MIGHTY SX-62. Sounded real good on those rare occasions when the drifty local oscillator and the drifty fixed BFO came to a reasonable agreement. Of course, THE MIGHTY SX-62 covers like 5 to 15 Mc on band 3, with no bandspread, so it takes SAFECRACKER FINGERS to get it even that close. But it did sound real good for several moments, here and there.

Right now, I'm using a vertical FM folded dipole because I've been doing alot more FM listening. One nice thing about the SX-62 is it's quite sensitive and the folded dipole works OK for casual SWL'ing despite it's short length and gross impedance mismatch.

I did the frequency check with my Radio Shack DX-440. The audio isn't quite as clear as MIGHTY SX-62's best and it can't follow fades like the SX-62 does, either.

The SX-99 is down with a hum, probably filter caps. But that damn thing is even driftier than the SX-62. I have to let it warm up for an hour or two ON THE SAME BAND I INTEND TO LISTEN TO AND WITH THE BFO ON to get the drift down to an even half way acceptable level. But it, with the bandspread, it does tune easier.


Sri Lanka Radio. They have a lot to talk about. https://concisepolitics.com/2016/08/...ians-in-russia http://www.arcamax.com/currentnews/n...ines/s-2200014 Sewage and rats and typhus at city hall in Los Angeles. ...TV programs always run their tired old same same crap all the time.
