You would not believe how good the signal sounds in FM ( 7 kHz bandwidth setting on an Icom ) during those quieter segments of music ... I kid you not ...

SW-J:
A bit of Outhouse Radio picked up on a Degen 1103 receiver:

I missed it.  Musta been Throbbing elswhere...

J, How you like that Degen 1103?   I picked one up a couple of yrs ago and discovered its a nice radio for very little cash.   Other than the funky volume control mode...

The Degen - hottest thing since a Texas summer like the one we've been having ...

Have learned to live with the volume control 'thing'. Amazed at the performance on AM and SW bands.

Another thing Throb, I'm finding use for the DE31 active loop antenna I bought with this Degen 1103 radio ... I've got the antenna with suction cup attached to the sliding glass door/windows listening to SW (WBCQ 7415) with a T-storm in progress ...

Will have to try the Active Loop antennas on a car window, since it is known that telescoping rod antennas don't/won't work in side a car (owing to the 'waveguide beyond cutoff effect' and for the same reason 2 Meters doesn't work well from inside a vehicle but 450 MHz and 900 on up do.)
