Hi all. Lots of new ones this time around using either Kenwood R1000 + box loop, or Icom R71a + phased loop/vertical. I had forgotten how well the box loop works, and now phasing it against my 55 ft high vertical, have discovered a powerful directional antenna combination for DX ! Had fun this morning phasing KDKA 1020khz, hearing KOKP Oklahoma, unknown SS station with Ranchera mx, then WPEO s/on, mixing into a jumble before sunrise. Very weak spanish under phased WHO 1040 last night and lots of european hets from 531khz all the way up to the top of the band. Best being 1359khz, Spain, with very very weak audio. Not good enough to log though.
