Yes when I use my ICOM R75 or Grundig Sat. 800. But not for all other

I've seen this word before what is null? BTW I have a friend who has
the book EASY-UP ANTENNAS FOR RADIO LISTENERS AND HAMS, EDWARD M NOLL.
Maybe I'll take a look at it.
All antennas receive better in some directions and worse in others.
The good directions are ''lobes'' the bad directions are ''nulls''.

A loop antenna has killer nulls perpundicular to the plane of the
coils. If you are trying to hear on a channel with more than one
station you can steer the null toward one of the stations and then
just hear the other one. This is the #1 advantage of a loop antenna,
IMHO.

I read your message. If you get this message on time, I am getting a
station that sound like Indian music. Around Bettween 7.15 and 7.2 am.

Sorry but I am using my Hammarlund 170. The dial is hard to read.

Then why don't you check with your R75... then you can find the correct
frequency.

Hey: It was one of those moments when a swl all of the sudden find
something on the airwaves and gets excited. By the time I would of
connected my R75, which was put away, the broadcast could of disappeared.

Considering the effort, it was only something to share.

Well, that's indeed the best place for an R75... put away.

Well he probably can, but it would probably be a major undertaking for a stem
such as yourself.
