Congratulations Moray, Very nice rig, I remember when a PRC-320 was impossible to get. As a former VK7 you picked a great place to have a QSO to and From. Its nice to hear the VK7 being so patient to work you. Did you make up your own Lithium battery back?

Reception on SW was amazing last week, I even picked up 3 stations broadcasting on the 11m band for the first time in Ireland at 25635, 25735 and 26100 kHz (well, those frequencies are my radio's memory, Tecsun Pl-880, from scanning the bands). One of them sounded like an African station, but there was noting on the shortwave schedule to tell me what it was.

@_._________ 3 ай бұрын

Yes, unless your fit to service them or know (with proof) radio is serviced & stable on tx Id avoid. Failures are beyond the boring & outdated advice on forums of change the caps in psu & synth. A Lot more is failing now in them. Ive serviced/modded more than a few. A nos unissued one wont last either without intervention. Just saying. 73
