Getting Started
Hello,
I'm new to this and have tons of questions. I've read a few FAQ's but need some specific help. I live in Massachusetts, west of Boston on a pond. 1. In general, will living on a pond have any negative effects on my reception? I've been told from the wireless phone company that the reflections of waves off the water causes some of my cell phone signal issues. 2. I'd like to listen to eastern Europe stations - after I get something set up is it reasonable for me to assume I will be able to get these stations? And if so, can I get them consistently - every day/ night? 3. I have a Grundig Yachtboy 400. Is this enough of a radio? 4. I see lots of big old rigs - do I need one of these? They do look like a lot of fun! 5. My Yacht boy has only a small jack for an external antenna (no BNC) - so how do I rig up a good antenna? 6. What would be a good antenna? I'd prefer some inside the house rig - even if it's more money. I was looking at Grove's AOR LA380 ANT44DS loop antenna. Is this a good antenna / solution? Thanks for any help you can provide. Paul |
