Re: [IRCA] 1st NEW STN on 1400 Khz since 1982!!! WDNY Dansville, NEW YORK



An impressive list of radios Rob. Your success on 1400 is definitely a point in favour of the SDR.

best wishes,

Nick

Nick?..Here's some of the Receivers I used over the years to try and hear something on 1400 Khz???

DRAKE R8B
JRC NRD-535D
Collins HF-2050
Collins 651-S1
Collins R-390A
Collins R-388
Hammarlund SP600
RCA AR88
Hallicrafters SX-28A
National HRO-60
Several Kenwood Amateur Transceivers with General Coverage
24 Different ULR Radios
and a Multitude of lesser known Receivers that I have forgot about??..

And?None of them worked to hear anything over the splatter from CKSL 1410 London!!!! I'm pretty close to the Transmitter site and I don't ever remember them going off the air!!

I have used Longwires, Dipoles, Box Loops, FSL's and Ferrite Rods?None of those worked either.

The SDR is the only thing that has worked for me?and I just logged another New Station on 1400 Khz tonight??WRAK - Williamsport, PA @ 2300 EDT. So that's 2 New ones in 2 Nights and Zip in 39 years before that???

1400 Khz has always been my Nemesis??..
