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? Mike Louisville, KY |

Mike Louisville, KY --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. |

A cabin in Wisconsin sounds like a great place for a DX shack, so I hope you get one of those antennas up and going. I don't know much about the DX394, but I got a DX390 (same as the 392, but no casette) off of eBay last year and I'm pretty impressed with what that portable can do with not much as an antenna. Unfortunately, I live in an urban industrial area, but I've found that I can find some sweet spots for shortwave reception in the strangest spots. There is a corner of the parking lot where I work where my radios seem to come to life on just their whips, despite being adjacent to a stretch of urban interstate. Post some logs when you get that antenna up, OK? Take care, Mike Louisville, KY WA4009SWL |
