Made my connections out on the deck and hooked it onto my sliding glass door.  Made another wire with clip to attach on the inside.  I wait for kids to go to bed so it will be quiet in the house before i can test it.

Awesome idea!!! Thanks..i will do that today!!  I can run wire from my sliding glass door frame around the top of my deck posts. That will give me a good 30feet outside about 20 feet off the ground.  Then another 20 or 30 feet from the inside frame to my recliner.  It wont be dipole though.

Keep looking, you will find one.. ALso set a timer for ebay aution end time and watch it the last 5 min.  thats how i got this one at the last 3 seconds.

I have the operating manual and service manual as wel as the manual for the software and I have the software that I found on a webpage.  I also have Phils R75 cookbook.  I plan on reading those tonight.

Right now i just use about 24 foot dipole made from speaker wire, that i put up in my living room.  Not exactly sure how i am going to be able to do an outside one without the wife complaining about holes, wires and such. 

I have a UTC clock on my cell phone and set my radio to UTC time.  Thanks for the information on the program, I'll look it up. 

I also found in my old box of scanner stuff, two Hamcom paralllel port devices that have a headphone jack on the end.  I guess I can use that to decode CW and RTTY. 

I am going to have to make a place for my radio gear and build up a computer from the parts I have laying in storage.   Not sure where I am going to make my listening station though.  Can't wait till we move to a bigger home, 2400sq feet just isnt enough with 3 little kids.

Go to usb mode and try pressing the filter button FIL-see if there is more than one option available. Try AM as well.  There may be a stock narrow filter there...not sure.  That will tell you how many filter deals you have going on.

There are N and W on AM and USB..are both of these stock?  What other upgrades could i check for?

Got my receiver after work today..its very clean, the knob rubber is a little dirty but no biggie. It looks lightly usdd, a couple minor scratches on the top plastic, no big deal. The power supply was not nasty either.  It does have the DSP installed!! That sweetened the deal.

How can i tell if it has filter upgrades?  I can tell the screws have been removed as tthey are a little scuffed in the phillips notches.

thanks for the recording.. I'll have to make a preset on my radio for the freq. and check it often.  It sounds very professional, DJ Michael has a very professional radio voice.. I wonder if he was or is a real DJ somewhere..

My guess is he has professional broadcasting experience in his background as noted. My guess overall is whoever operates this station has a heavy broadcasting & technical background. In a sense this station isn't like the classic pirates we're all used to as it mimics stations of the late 60s and 70s. No political protest or underground style of music so to say. Nothing ever mentioned against the Federal Corporate Cooks either. More just for fun type of broadcast.

Yeah.. I bet your are right.. I'd love to catch it one day.  Anyone who didnt know better, would probably think it was a real commercial station.  I love the classic theme, i was born in the mid 70s, so i never got to experience that on the radio.

Cyberflexx, is your DX-350 the one that's branded as a Realistic or the one with the Radio Shack brand on the front?  Just wondering, as they are basically two separate radio designs.

Says radio shack  made in china.. Not the better of the two i dont think.
