Equipment / Newbie needs help on antenna for a Comm Radio CR-1
« on: January 22, 2020, 0352 UTC »
Hello, I am quite new to the SW Receiver world.
I recently acquired a Comm Radio CR-1 and am trying to figure out a decent antenna setup.
I am looking at ...
MW-HF Antenna Port 1: High impedance input for random wire.
3.5 mm (1/8”) female-mono-jack.
MW-HF Antenna Port 2: BNC Female – 50 Ohm.
VHF-UHF Antenna Port 3: BNC Female – 50 Ohm.
and
External Chassis Ground Connection
I'm just not sure where to start. At the moment I don't want to be an antenna expert but am looking more for a simple external SW receiver antenna.
Thank you in advance..Richard
Even an affordable commercial pre-assembled setup would be fine.
