I can't imagine why anyone would place such a poorly performing unit as this online. I'm sorry I wasted any time at all trying it out. As I said, unless there's a short in the Antenna circuit, I can't imagine how anyone could have the audacity to promote this SDR as being fit for LW or MW DX. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Tue, 3 Aug 2021 12:16:01 +0000 (UTC) From: L?cio Bobrowiec <eefi...@yahoo.com.br> To: "Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com" <Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: [HCDX] R.

Makes a fast SAH with `C2CAM` on WOAI. On the DX-398 I try to DF it, and find it`s slightly east of due north, i.e. the two are almost exactly opposite, which is bad news for would-be WOAI listeners: if you null the QRM here you also null WOAI. It`s got to be KFNW, Fargo ND, which is a g.h. station but all its night power of 13 kW is supposed to head north! Must be totally out of whack; and if so, why not ascribe 50 kW day power to it too, when pattern is also northward but a significant minor lobe southward. No other possibilities than KFNW by format, language and direxion. It`s ironic that the original ``Clear Channel`` station, WOAI, find itself in such a situation; but who cares now?
