I have an Icom R-75 with the aforementioned 150 footer. What do you have?

Years ago, I had a Hallicrafters S-40A and a small Grundig console with a
hurtin' phono and FM section. I used a inverted L attic antenna.

Since then, I've used a variety of mostly tube radios and baseboard short
wire antennas. Could be the combination of the radios and antennas which
have made 9580 more reliable for me. Might even be just habit reinforcing
what I "know" to be true. Suppose I'd need some calibrated equiptment and
standardized antennas to be sure.
