All:

getting a new SWR; Bell & Howell 9 Band Shortwave Radio
- as a gift; $20, I mean, why not !

- Anyone have one ?
Anyone hook it up to a REAL long antenna & see what obtains??

Anyone find any neat stuff to do with it once you take it apart ??

Thanks

Hooking it up to an external antenna should make it overload more
and also add to the images from 910 kHz higher up. See if you can
get images from 2x(f+455) +/- 455. BTW, you really ought to check
eBay to get one for under $10, as was the Coby 12-band radio. Both
should do very well for AM stereo stations due to mild filtering,
and may even provide good audio for ordinary AM in headphones.
