Some obervations on the E1 with 8" Quantum loop:
640-680 were OK; 690 hiss; 700-740 were mostly OK; 750 WSB S-9+40 readable
but unlistenable through hiss; 760 WJR S-9+50 w/hiss; 770 WABC s-9+40 with loud
hiss;
780 WBBM S-9+50 w/hiss; 830 WCCO, when I turned the antenna to null WCCO down
to S-9+45, hiss from WHAS; 880 WCBS S-9+45 thru loud hiss; WHO-1040 hiss wiping
out N-S reception on 1030, which has a station 18 miles from me. Hiss on 1100,
1110 & 1120.
No skywave stations would decode, Is this because of adjacent channel hiss?
The Quantum loop has something like a 40dB amplifier, but that wasn't the hiss
I heard.
So, did all 50kw stations agree to give up their 750 mi skywave protection so
that they could be hissed upon in secondary if not primary groundwave area? 73,
