My Shortwave listening set up continues to evolve and I thought some people
would like to see what I've been up to . Here's a collage look at pictures I
took today. (Click the imgur.com<http://imgur.com> link nelow)
https://imgur.com/a/6A8Wz
I have honestly had a few people ask what I do/use/how I do it, so I thought
I'd share this.
Let me say this then explain the set up with a few comments..Except for the
Wellbrook antenna amplifier/controller, all the antenna pieces were bought on
amazon. Then me, who is not a handy, patient, instruction reading type of
person put this all together in about 30 minutes the first day I got it.
Thanks to Colin Newell in Victoria, BC, Canada.. Thomas Witherspoon at
SWLing.com<http://SWLing.com> and Andy at Wellbrook for answering my incessant
quesitons which encouraged me and propelled me to put this all together.
Considering my location which is 50 feet from a major intersection in town and
just a few blocks from downtown, I do pretty darn good noise and reception
wise.. plus, this has certianly made a HUGE difference in my reception over the
average Wellbrook premade magnetic loop, the W6LVP and Doxytronics loops.
Top left picture is my radio listening table. The radio is an Icom IC-746Pro.
Om top of it is a Zoom H1 handheld digital recorder with an audio in port that
gets audio from the ICOM's audio out jack.
The small box/speaking looking thing is an Tecsun ICR100 that functions as an
external speaker. On the brown chair is an EmTech ZM 2 antenna tuner. A
DXEngineering HF PreAmp(boosts the signal about 15db) is next to it on the
tbale.
The DXEngineerinf HF Preamp isn't really needed as the Icom radio has it's own
2 stage amplifier you can select manually, but I sometimes still use it on weak
signals. As well, the Icom also has it's own built in tuner you manually
activate but I still use the EmTech ZM2 antenna tuner as it still does help a
bit on tuning up a signal to be stronger and less fade-y.
The top right picture is my antenna. Single conductor 22 gauge electrical hook
up wire runs up the side of a speaker stand with 1 1/4 inch pvc pipe jhammed on
top for extra height. The antenna wire runs to the top of the pvc pipe, and
goes 25 feet out to another pvc pipe/speaker stand and down the side..... then
two ends of the wire meet in the middle.
The two ends of the wire connect to a Wellbrook ALA100LN antenna amplifier and
then to a antenna/radio interface box.
The bottom left picture is a close up view of my radio listening gear
The bottom right picture is a view of the 30 amp power supply the radio
requires.
The radio and power supply each weigh about 20 pounds. My gear is outside and
is not permanent. I must carry it out when I want to use it and back in when I
am done.

** BOLIVIA. 5935.0, Oct 23 at 2334, trace of modulation, presumed R. Yura on
its recent new frequency where normally I get a JBA carrier at best --- and
this is on the PL-880 and shortwire. Yet when I have fired up the NRD and
longerwire at 2352, it`s back to JBAC. Oct 24 at 2336 check, JBAC once again.
As I`ve said before, our only possible window is just before WWCR blox 5935
from *2358 --- but in B-17 it`s registered to start as early as *2200! Unclear
whether they will axually move it that early as own B-17 sked has not yet been
posted (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1901, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 15570, Oct 23 at 2355, Chinese talk and music, fair S5-S7; NDXC/Aoki
shows RFA Chinese at 23-24 via Tinian, which Must Be *Jammed. (At 0000 15570 is
ceded to CNR-11 Tibetan service from Baoji-
Sifangshan 724 site, per NDXC) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6935-USB, Oct 23 at 2205, pirate music with very repetitive
beat, almost disco; 2210 announcement over music, unseems ID. Still going past
2220 at S7-S9. Earlier than I usually patrol the band, but good thing I did
since no pirates were logged in later hours by anyone this date, than Cool AM
[sic] on 6935-USB per:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,38173.0.html
Gone by my next check at 2353 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, Oct 23 at 2331, JBA carrier from R. Chaski. Often it`s a
struggle to hear on the bigrigs, but this time I am quickly checking on the
porch with the PL-880 and shortwire around the eaves, and it`s easy, until
autocutoff at 2333:02*: That is 75 seconds later than last catch Oct 12 until
2331:47*, averaging 6.82 seconds slippage per noctem. My fun will be dashed in
B-17 as Romania plans to block 5980 at 2300-2400 in English. No doubt some will
be glad to see this pursuit suspended (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1901,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 7325-7330-7335, Oct 24 at 0554, DRM noise, i.e. RRI amid its
English/German hour for western Europe, but also bleeding on USward (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN. 7205.0, Oct 24 at 0555, very poor carrier from presumed Omdurman,
after having been on 7206.0, 47 hours earlier. Wolfgang B?schel has this
explanation: ``This 1 kHz offset is used by Omdurman technicians often as
jamming whistle noise action against target station programs Radio Dabanga and
Radio Tamazuj from Dutch FPU/PNW NGO organization on 7315, 9600, 13800, 15540,
15550 kHz around 0330-0600 or 15-16 UT. See page 516 in WRTH 2017. And forget
to switch back the deviation to exact frequency`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 1901, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 9830, Oct 23 at 2201, VOT opening English, cautioning that the 23
and 04 UT broadcasts are recorded playbacks (even the ``news`` becomes
``olds``). Huh?? Those are the winter timings. They must have been uttering the
wrong hours on this announcement all summer! Is it canned, or even worse, read
every day from script by clueless announcer? In a few days it will be correct
again, once this broadcast has made its usual shift to start at 23 but on 5960
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K. 17870, Oct 23 at 1428-1430+, S9-S7 signal in Arabish? No, it`s Kurdish
from VOA at 1400-1500, 300 kW, 75 degrees from Woofferton. ?? That azimuth is
wrong, missing all of Iran to the north of it. And that includes a +5 degree
slew. Kurdistan should range from 90 to 95 degrees. Is that the best they can
do, no more suitable azimuth?
Some members of the British DX Club recently went on a tour of Woofferton, and
present 21 photos here, unrestricted:

captions (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1900 monitoring: confirmed Monday October 23 at 2330
on WBCQ 9330.2v-CUSB, fair. By 2358 I refine it to 9330.20v-CUSB, S9+20 to S7.

** U S A. 1710.02, Oct 24 at 0614 UT, Spanish preaching, presumed Radio Ret?n
lo que Tienes, B?ton Rouge, Louisiane pirate. So far only other DXer of this
known is Terry Krueger in Florida who put it on ``1710.024, at 0915 October 21,
2017. Nearly local level with primitive Spanish live (presumably pre-recorded)
gospel chanting inside the church with lots of room echo`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
