Really solid signal tonite on the formally lost, but just found today, Grundig Executive Traveler III with the telescopic whip

Don,
Good to hear you found your Traveler III. :)
That is a hot little receiver for a pocket radio.
Been awhile since taking the back off but IIRC
it has only a small 2" or 3" loopstick… amazing
how well it performs on AM band.
If you can inductively couple to it a wire or loop,
it gets even better.

Good idea.....think I'll pair it up with the Tecsun AN-200 this week and see what surfaces.
Thanks

Put the Traveler III and the AN-200 on a lazy susan this morning and between rotating the turntable and tuning the loop
was able to peak the signals from WSCR Chicago, KMOX St. Louis, and KCJJ Iowa City. Some of it seemed to be skywave
and some groundwave but it did work...
good idea on the AN-200.

You may have developed a new protocol - The "Shortwave Salad" HF tuning method ! :)

Using the Traveler III / AN-200 / lazy susan combo again tonight,
have been able to null WWL AM 870 New Orleans and pull in
Radio Reloj on the same freq loud and clear with the time ticks
plainly audible and the beep followed by RR in Morse every minute,
OM and YL in espanol.
-
Only hearing the one minute beep followed by the RR tonight in the WWL null,
not copying any voice, just a jumble.
Checked some other Radio Reloj frequencies but didn't hear the distinctive RR.
