Best Shortwave Antenna for Cycling ?
It's yer bike !
Believe it or not. I had this junky transistor styled shortwave radio that hardly picked up any stations. I also had a hard time picking up even FM in some places out here due to the terrain. One bike radio(am/fm/headlight) I tried had a wire coming out from it. And when it got near the bike,the radio went dead. So for FM your bike is a signal killer. So just goofing around today I clipped a wire to my bike....(to the reflector bracket) and this shortwave radio worked GREAT! I rode around to all the places I had problems with FM even. And the shortwave stations were really loud and clear. I'm just sayin.... Whooda thunk a bike is a perfect shortwave antenna? Thank God I don't have to listen to Clearchannel anymore ! |
