Thanks! I did not bring my Grundig 400 but will next trip in May. I suspect a lousy rx. I was in Barrow AK last year with my Grundig and even on the shores of Arctic Ocean was less than amazed by what I hrd. A lot of buzz and KBRW on multiple channels! G Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

I suspect that the car radio you had was very feeble. 1610 in Honolulu is the traffic advisory radio, and is usually on with a loop at good strength 24 hours a day, and yet you didn't hear it. From Honolulu, I heard several stations from other islands as well as the local Oahu stations. Last time there was in December. I also remember clearly hearing and recording every MW station while driving up Haleakala on Maui for the sunrise. No problems there at all! One other observation I once made was that my balcony on Waikiki, about a block from the ocean was only so-so, but taking the ULR down to the beach, especially at dusk was magic! Sure beats DXing in sub zero temperatures up here! .........Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected] _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
