Halifax area DXers -
I am going to be in Halifax, Nova Scotia
for a couple of weeks this summer. -looking for tips on picking up transatlantic MW and LW stations from Europe. Will pack a Sony 7600G or a Yacht-Boy 400PE and might pre-ship a small frame loop to the hotel. Thanks - /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ www.coffeecrew.com Canada's original resource for the Coffee lover. rnewell AT vcn DOT bc DOT ca \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ |

And of course, some have argued that Marconi did not receive long waves in 1901, but harmonics in the shortwave. Michael |

Thanks - Watch out - Coast Guard Halifax will probably shake the solder loose on a portable using an external antenna in their neighborhood! Their signal on 2182 is strong all the way to Virginia Beach, VA even in the daytime! St Anthony, Sudbury and St John can do the same. Good hunting, Jack |

Good hunting, Jack Reminds me of when I vacationed with my family on Cape Cod (1966) near the transmitters of WCC. There was so much RF in the air I had to cool my fillings with a mouthful of water. :-) http://members.aol.com/WN1ION1967/wcchistory.htm -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
