Hiya....
---------------------
Thre are three Yahoo groups devoted to the PCR1000,
and one more about PCRtrunk(or something like that).

If you add a MW (AM BCB) reject filter it will really
improve the reception of ALL bands on the '1000.
I use the Kiwa filter, but Stridsberg is also highly rated.
I do have a Stridsberg FM (88~108) reject fitler which
really cleans up the 30~75MHz range.

Here are plans for a DIYS that work pretty well.
I had to stack 2 in series.

Kiwa also makes a Low Pass MW reject that will allow
the PCR1000 to shine on LF.

A good antenna and ground is a must. I would suggest either
an acitve antenna like the AmRad or a "Doty" wire antenna
that uses a 9:1 transformer to couple the ~500 Ohms of the
typical wire antenna to a 50 or 75 Ohm coax.

A set of 10, 20, and 30dB external attenuators is also very nice.

With attention to detail the PCR1000 becomes a good HF receiver.

I keep frequency lists to cover specific events. One for Huricanes,
which I am using right now. Plus local VHF/UHF freqs for T-storms\
tornados, snow/ice storms, floods, riots in any of the 4 nearby
towns. I even have a set of frequencies that I pray I will never need.
About 25 miles south east of me is the BGAD, where they have
tons of ancient nerve agent stored and slated for destruction. A
major leak there will ruin a lot of peopels lives.
