Be careful with this. I haev an ICOM 706 which I have been listening to
350kHz beacons and I suspect sensitivity is not an issue. The receive is
not selective enough to keep out much noise. Below about 200KHz I heae
locam AM broadcase stations. Some kind of IM or something. I want to build
some kind of a low / band pass filter to see if it makes a diff. The
specific antenna can also make a diff. I'm using a 40M dipole.
