New Kenwood R-5000 Receiver Owner - Asks What Antenna Do You Use ?

1. Here are three Messages posted on the Kenwood R-5000 Group
to Read :

* So You Put-Up an Outside Shortwave Antenna and Your Neighbors are...

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kenwood-r5000/message/968

* BEST ANTENNA ! ~IMHO~ OutSide "Low Noise Design"
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kenwood-r5000/message/307

* Low Noise (SWL) Shortwave Antenna for the Kenwood R-5000
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kenwood-r5000/message/266


2. Here are three Messages posted on the SWL Antenna Group to Read :

* Low Noise "SWL" Antenna for the Kenwood R-5000
[NO Antenna Tuner Required]
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...a/message/1525

* Two (2) InDoor Antennas with the Kenwood R-5000 Receiver
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...na/message/854

* "Matching" the AM/MW Loop Antenna to the Radio
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...na/message/194

TIP - If you are in an Apartment or Condo and can not have
an "OutSide" External Antenna for your Kenwood R-5000 Receiver :
READ - Coax Cable [Shielded] Loop Antennas {GreerTech}
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...a/message/1625

RHF Says - My "EveryMans" Shortwave Listening (SWL) Antenna :
* Low Noise Inverted "L" Antenna - a la John Doty
* Laid-Out : East (Bottom Tip) to West (Far End)
* 15 Foot Vertical-Up-Leg with a 30 Foot Horizontal-Out-Arm
* Wire Antenna Element = 50 Strands of #41 Litz Wire = 20 AWG
* TV 'type' 300 Ohm to 75 Ohm Matching Transformer
* RG6 Quad-Shield Coax Cable Feed-in-Line about 25 Feet Long

RHF Says - My AM/MW Antenna is a Kiwa AM/MW Air Core Loop Antenna

PORTABLE WHIP ANTENNA TIP
For a back of the Receiver "Whip" Antenna for your 'portable'
Radio Operations with your Kenwood R-5000 Receiver consider
the Miracle Whip Antenna.

QUESTIONS FOR EVERYONE TO CONSIDER AND COMMENT ON :

So... Lets Hear What Kind Of Wire You Got In The Air ? ? ?

Do You Have Separate Antennas for Shortwave and AM/MW
Radio Listening ? ? ?

What Antennas have you tried in the Past ? ? ?

i want to know ~ RHF
