Actually VA facilities are quite good, but if you Canucky niggahs poke around
one might find a lot of things wrong.

At any rate, I'd bet it beats the Canucky Third World state of care...

Cuban news is delivered with such a Communist Revolutionary bias, that
I don't really follow it. But the 0330U DX program on Saturday is
interesting at times.

I can post a recording (WMA format) to alt.binaries.radio-scanner or

Get a life boy, and get a job, then you can afford a bit more than 'stealth'.

If not, then take my advice and get the hell out of here until you can.

I've got to do something about noise pickup through the antenna, but
its going to be difficult to find a solution that is distant from the
source of the noise (the house) and not unsightly.

I use a thirty foot (10 m) piece of coax as a lead in from the wire. I
had a well grounded water tap underneath the connection point, so I used
that instead of grounding the sheath nearer the radio.

I currently have a modified MFJ-1026 and a Quantum Phaser. I used to
have an ANC-4 but sold it after I had the 1026 modified. The 1026 allows
for the use of a telescoping antenna or an external antenna and has
jumper positions that can be set that affect the gain of the unit. The
Quantum Phaser has inputs for 2 external antennas and was designed to be
compatible with the Quantum QX series of antennas.

I have had no regrets about selling off the ANC.

YMMV according to your location.

Was the frequency really 6178 or was it 6180?
