Perseus has a 50 ohm input Mark, while a long wire, especially for NDB frequencies is high impedance. Some sort of matching transformer and likely a separate ground rod for the antenna side would probably help.

I can post a diagram later today if that doesn't already tell you everything you need to know.

best wishes,

Nick

I'll be playing radio at Grayland Beach State Park Tuesday through Thursday. Day time will be Ham stuff, but nights and mornings I want to record NDBs on the Perseus with a long wire. Any advice on matching, grounding etc? Do I need a preamp? Thanks, Mark, KE7MSU Sent from my iPad
