Ten-Tec 1054 Shortwave Kit
Hi,
I built a Ten-Tec 1054 kit and I don't seem to be able to pick up any stations. I've rechecked all the parts and they are all in the right place and oriented correctly. I get a lot of static, but nothing that even sounds like a signal. I live in Chicago. Are there a lot of stations that can be picked up from here? I'm using a 6 foot antenna. Any suggestions? |

A simple sanity check is to check the AM band. |
