My current SWLing setup:
RX : Belka-DX
Noise Reduction : BHI DSP Noise Canceling (in-line)
ANT : Cheap Chinese Active Antenna (PA3FWM style)
Antenna works good on current propagation.

Eton Elite came in. Sweet looking radio but I’ll have to do some testing on it later

Taking a little break in Camp Sherman, Central Oregon, listening to Brazilian music on Radio Nacional da Amazônia from Brasilia via Shortwave (11780 KHz), taking advantage of the relatively low RF interference here. Using my mighty little Quodosen DX-286.

Tonight on 5950 KHz at 03:25 UTC WRMI seems to be playing interesting ambient music instead of right wing preaching.

Doing some shortwave listening in the back yard and both Hawaii WWVH and Colorado WWV time stations are coming in simultaneously on 15000 KHz.

Kicked on the #D220 tonight for some #SWLing - heard a religious station, two Spanish broadcasts, and a BBC-type station telling a story over the air.

Pretty sure I’m not catching much due to a high noise floor though. Once my schedule calms down during the semester I want to go drive out and do a #POTA so maybe I’ll bring this radio and see what I can hear in a less-urban environment.

Just spinning the HF radio dial I found some nice classical/opera show on 5850. Thanks WRMI. 🙂

also tuned this Japanese language station, station was talking about Hiroshima, Kanto, Chiba, but signal was too poor to understand much #swling

playing with a simple SW radio, managed to tune to a Chinese language station around 11.7MHz, by 22-23 hours GMT, the station also happened to play the PRC anthem March of the Volunteers, signal was sometimes good but couldn't identify much else #swling

I picked up something on #shortwave! It's in Spanish. The signal is pretty strong. I have a room-height (maybe 2 meter max?) telescoping antenna so it's got to be nearby, that antenna isn't strong enough to pick up nearly anything, and this signal is pretty strong (except when it isn't)

I need to get back to messing with radio stuff. Maybe take my Tecsun out into the parking lot and do some #swling, just throw the wire antenna into a tree.

I should also get back to studying for my general license.

WTF? PC seeks out RFI to sort out the QRM in his QTH

New blog post by me about trying to find the source of some radio interference in my home.
