Re: [IRCA] Sony SRF-M37L

[Russ Edmunds <wb2bjh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Given the small size of the unit, and consequently the small size of the
ferrite antenna it probably wouldn't be usable for LW in North America.
Generally, the smaller portables are that way. Despite the high powers of
the European LW transmitters, at LW
frequencies you still need much more antenna than you do for MW.
