Paul Walker Galena, Alaska 225 foot long wire DXEngineering HF PreAmp Grundig Sattelit 750 NHK1 567 was pretty good, good signal with only a little noise. No fading. woman singing mellow music. I also had NHK 1 on 612, same programming as 567 but not as good of a signal and a bit more noise. NHK1 was also present on 594, much better signal then 612 but not as good as 567, a bit of noise. (567 audio here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJSgygO9BrI ) AFN 810 The Eagle was about as good as I've had it lately. This is normal for it, good signal but a little noisy and quick dives into nothingness.
