[IRCA] Japanese 5" FSL Antenna Demonstration

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello All, 
 
For those interested, the growing Japanese contingent of Ultralight radio DXers has posted a demonstration video ofÂthe gain boost provided by a 5" FSL antennaÂto a weak AM signal on a portable radio near Tokyo, at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqO5H2WYvKc&feature=youtu.be  
 
The 5" FSL antenna's design and construction details were posted by the major MW-DXing clubs a couple of years ago, and are also posted in the article at http://www.mediafire.com/view/9ze98h293s85p86/5_inch_FSL.doc ÂÂThe FSL antenna's popularity seems to be growing in Japan, where despite many decades of electronic innovation, nobody seems to have conceived of such a simple and effective way to boost MW signals. A second 5" FSL model should be shipped to Japan soon. 
 
73 and Good DX, 
Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA)
