Howdy, Mike.
Where are you located, when will you be listening (night, day, morning, afternoon, etc.), and what would you like to hear? I'll do my best to give you a hand - as will others here, I'm sure. 73, -- Steve Lawrence KAØPMD Burnsville, Minnesota "If a man wants his dreams to come true then he must wake up." - Anonymous "Mike Donahue" wrote in message ... | i recently acquired a grundig yacht boy 400 and am quite frustrated as i | can find almost nothing interesting on it! does anyone have any advice | to help me get started? | --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I simply have not had much luck scanning the frequencies. thanks again! Mike: Unless I'm mistaken, the Yacht Boy will have an external antenna hookup facility. If nothing else, get about 40' of bell wire, hook it up, and stretch it out as high as you can get it (even indoors). Then, concentrate on the following frequencies/times of day: 4700 to 7400 kHz: Evening and nights. 9500 to 11900 kHz: Anytime 13000 to 18000kHz: Daytime. Good luck - stay in touch. Tony |
