[HCDX] Old Ultralight Sony SW-100 test

2009-11-27 Thread Giampiero58
Ciao,
I tested, after many years I forgot it in a box, an old ultralight, the Sony
ICF-SW100 with my outdoor antenna T2FD 15 meters long. It is nice to observe
that it doesn't need on SW the preselector, as Tecsun PL-310 and Grundig G6
Aviator. Sony SW100 is a nice receiver with Synchro AM (upper and lower)and
good SSB too. I used the Drake R8 as control receiver.

On 40 meters ham band I could follow QSOs by a KP2 (Virgin Islands) old man
without problems.

It works well also on MW. On on this band it accept also the external
antenna! (Not PL-310 and G6). But on MW it is really better to use a
preselector. I used MFJ 1020C.

On LW, for NDB, it shows more sensitivity with its internal ferrite than
PL-310 and G6. And it works well thanks to its superior USB or LSB/CW.

[HCDX] MW with Mexico

2009-05-12 Thread Giampiero58
Few tips made on MW from Bocca di Magra (La Spezia) I had 20 burning minutes
with a great opening 0405-0425, with many signals but only few ids.

On 1370 I found 5 stations together with similar signal but all on a
frequency a little different, the spectrum looked like a small DRM curve...
Of course no one was readable

On the air also several Mexican radios. Also on 1400 XEVI, with local
comercials from San Juan del Rio Queretaro with 1 KW. 

Ciao

[HCDX] Radio Maria WF QSL manager

2008-07-01 Thread Giampiero58
Radio Maria World Family decided to start a QSL service, as a friendly
attention towards radio enthusiasts. So, after talks with Radio Maria WF
President, Emanuele Ferrario, and Radio Maria WF Network Director, Claudio
Re, I begun to confirm reports as QSL manager.  It is a volunteer amateur
service. So far we have QSL letter for Radio Maria Nederland 675 kHz and
Radio Maria station in Andrate, Italy, on 26000 kHz AM and 26010 kHz DRM. 

Mail address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you prefere a paper confirmation, you can write to my address: Giampiero
Bernardini - via Tertulliano 35 - 20137 Milano - Italy. If possible, please,
add stamps, IRC, 1 dollar etc. just to help me in answering. 

We'll appreciate audio clips. We are interested in knowing how you receive
Radio Maria. About DRM broadcasting we'll appreciate information about audio
quality, a copy of Dream software log and images of Dream software at work.

[HCDX] Latin America station list

2007-01-01 Thread Giampiero58
Dear friends
I made a Latin America SW radio list. This list has been compiled
starting 
from April 06, for my and my friends personal use. Dario Monferini,
PlayDX 
editor, helped me, to up to date it,  I got the idea from the original 
Mohrmann's site, Latin American Short Wave Logs,  so far it has not been

not completely updated in past 2 years, the Mosquito Coast DX Team has
done 
something, but no carefully. My list is just a simple one compilation,
it's 
a beta list too. I hope Mohrmann will restart again his great job! You
can see the new up to date on this blog: http://lasw.blogspot.com/
