Hi All,
Thanks again for answering my "vague" question as I was mostly trying to get
some opinions in an effort to assist my brother. I'm fine with my Drake and
Kiwa and do understand that they're not manufactured anymore, which is a

Bruce,
The half of the year that I DX in Washington state, My antennas are
20 unobstructed sea miles or less from all of the Vancouver 50 kw
flamethrowers. Using a 100 x 20 KAZ antenna, I had no problems at
all. With a 65' x 100' EWE pointed nearly at the Vancouver stations
this summer, I ha
John, I noticed in the specifications section at the
Winradio site, image rejection is not listed below
1.8Mhz. How does the 313e perform in high RF (eg city)
environments with a simple long wire? And...thanks for
piquing my interest in yet another radio, hi, hi!

I wasn't going to answer this, since it is truly a Fools Question,
IMHO. However, when my good friend Nick H-P mentioned the IRCA
Reprint and then "updated it" by mentioning the E1, which I own and
the R-75, which I've used, I just had to drop my oar in the
water. You might ask yourself why G

Sounds like a reasonable location for DX especially if he's not
afraid of early rising.
Sounds as if strong signals shouldn't be a big problem there, so most

Doesn't it depend upon your goals?
I mean, if you're parked on the domestic channels, it doesn't take much of a
receiver to be happy ... success boils down to directional antennas.
If you're chasing the EU/TP split channels, then it comes down to receiver
design. Except for you boys on the coas
Howdy,
I appreciate everyones input on this and the variety of suggestions. I don't
think my brother has ever been into SWL'ing and as a matter of fact, he's
the one that got me into DX'ing the BCB, before we really knew what it was
called. (it was just pure fun to hear Chicago etc. from CA.) M

Doug,
Is he looking for MW or SW mainly? The R75 has gotten some good reviews

Doug,
A Drake R8/A/B and a KIWA Loop, for someone that did not want to mess
with outside antennas. Of course the Drake R8/A/B is no longer made as
well as the KIWA loop, but there is still a lot of used ones around.
For a new set up maybe the R75 and a Quantum Loop.

Hi All,
So Nick, your going to make me work for these answers. hi. Thanks for
posting that resource, I appreciate it.
Actually, I'm just looking for opinions, but to narrow the question down.
How about just receivers that are currently produced. Personally I'm not in
the market for a new re

what he is looking for but apparently he forgot about that and
