Dennis,
Thanks for your comments about the 14.5" antenna SRF-39FP. Yes, the
ICF-2010 can't really compete with it on open frequencies, but the 2010's
selectivity is better, so it's kind of a tradeoff for top overall DX
performance.
Before the DX season in the fall, I would like to transplant a 14"
antenna into the ICF-2010, which I think would make a huge difference in its
DX
capability. It would also be one of the "spinoff" benefits of the current
Ultralight hotrodding craze, to create a super classic DX portable that would
be
of interest to the general AM-DX community.
Good luck in your trip to Grayland this month, Dennis. I hope you can
log some DU's with your ultralights and a BOG antenna, or at least some new
ULR countries.
73, Gary
