Equipment / Dipping toes into SW
« on: August 11, 2020, 1436 UTC »
Hi folks, first post.
I'm using an old Sony ICF SW07 and loop aerial Sony AN LP2. This seems to work okay but I live quite north (near Glasgow, Scotland) but also I'm just at sea level. I appreciate this may not be too bad for SW listening but is there anything I can do to to improve reception!should the loop face horizontally or vertically? Does it matter either way?
Cheers
