y'all ever seen a little doggy follow you to the bathroom before, and
then she back tracks to the living room and brings one of her rubber
squeaky doggy toys in the bathroom?
I have to watch some old silent movies on the TCM channel now.

I know that feeling all too well! Don't know where you are in the
Mojave but I've taken my radios up past Jawbone Canyon and have still
found plenty of noise - better than the city (LA) but the noise was
still killer. I figured it was partially due to all radiating from
Edwards & China Lake.

As others have posted lists of their raido so shall I.

Icom R-75
Sony 7600G
RatShack DX-398
Grundig Mini-World 300

I lived up there in Ridgecrest and the answer is "Ground" deep and wet. If
you can soak it once a week do it.

I keep the runoff from my swamp cooler on my flowers and ground rod.

When I was out in my motor-home I had 5 gals that I used to wet roots on
little trees to get a good ground.

Another answer would be a counterpoise. In poor soil conditions you are
better off using radials.

I don't think 10 of the usual posters to this group have a short-wave
radio!

This is based on the replies that are posted to short-wave related post.

Just my thoughts!

I can't live a lie any more...the pressure is just overwhelming. It is
with the greatest remorse that I now confess to never having owned a
radio. I was a fool to think I could keep up the charade for any length
of time.

In all fairness though, I did play with two tin cans with a string
between them, but I lost that in '83.

However, it all depends on what your definition of 'radio' is.

Burr, you've made me face reality.
