I have no doubt that this is the place to go if you're a hardcore radio fan.
I started reading this group in hopes of finding out how to pick a better antenna for my RadioLabs-modded Sangean 909, but have to admit that I've come away more confused than ever. To keep my needs simple, I need an external antenna for a wide range of bands (between 150 and 30K KHz) that mates with my RCA jacks. I've read about the benefits (or necessity) of a separate antenna tuner, and some brands have come up. I've heard about the Sony AN-1, but found that it's discontinued and Ebay may be the only source, and there are some other loop antennas that I cold lay out on my roof...but I guess I don't know what's best. What thrills me about listening to my radio is picking up signals from all over the world, finding out what other people think and say. It was always cool to me, even when I was a little kid and sat around an old Sony FY-410 worldband radio (which I still have, and it still picks up plenty nearly 40 years later). I don't plan to ever transmit--it's a passive sport for me--and I live in Central New Jersey (USA) so there's plenty of noise to compete with. So, can you hook a brother up? LOL |
