I just heard it on 11.75 MHz at 15:30 UTC, August 19, listening in
Northern California.  When it finished, an announcer said that episode
2 would be broadcast at the same time next week.

It was a new episode for me, picking up the characters where the radio
series left them about a decade ago.  The same actors were given
credit for the voices of Arthur, Ford, and Zaphod, and Douglas Adams
was given credit as the author.

Summary: How to recognize the improved model from the old stock?

Organization: Murdoch University
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 92 02:48:02 GMT

Could, please, the owners of the SW-77 model tell how many segments
has their telescopic antenna ?
Apparently, this is the way how to recognize the "new" improved
model from the old that was withdrawn in the US about a year ago.
The SW-77 has just (so late!) been released in Australia. Yesterday
I went to the Perth SONY showroom and there was a SW-77 with
a price tag of A$ 999 (US$ 730). The set had a NINE-segment
antenna and its serial number was in the order of 40 000.

Does it mean that SONY is dumping "old" SW-77 in distant Australia?
I rang the local SONYin Perth and the all-Australia SONY in Sydney
but they did not anything about the earlier problems with the model.

We already know that in some coutries like Germany the local SONY
put an identified mark on the box ( a dot) to mark the "new" models.
But how to guard ourselves against "old" models? There is a strong
possiblity that the "old" models will surface in countries like
Australia or some "cheap" mail-order companies in the US will
distribute them at cut prices.

I don't have anything fancy when it comes to SW, only an old analog
Fisher "boombox" that just happens to have continuous SW coverage, and
a longwire antenna comprised of speaker wire & lamp cord!  Despite this
obviously "budget" setup, BBC comes in very clear almost 24 hrs per day
on 49m and 31m bands.  I can't be sure of the exact frequency obviously,
but I think it's somewhere around 6.100 (49m) and 9.500 (31m).  In San
Jose, CA it comes in relatively good.  I think the 49m is actually a
relay station in the Caribbean somewhere, not sure.

Anyhow, what sort of a SW setup do you have, and what sort of stuff have
you picked up from Saskatchewan?  Over here in San Jose, CA, on this
"thing" I've been able to pick up a great number of countries, such as
BBC (england), Deutsche Welle (Germany) , Canada (CBC), Austria, many
stations in US, Radio France, HCJB in Quito, Ecuador (real easy to
pick up, they're >500,000 watts), and once I picked up Radio South
Africa in Johannesburg.  It wasn't that great a signal, though.  I've
also picked up Vatican Radio , Syria, and Voice of Lagos, Nigeria too.
--

You are much more fancy than me - I don't have anything (yet)!
How long is your longwire antenna and which direction(s) do you run it?

I'm looking at borrowing a portable radio that has SW to see what I can get.

Will let you know.

If the DC kit hasn't changed during the year it's been since
i ordered mine, I would have to say I prefer the Ramsey kit.
The Ramsey kit has a 1-transistor RF amplifier in its output;
the DC kit does not.  The Ramsey kit is built on a larger
circuit board, so it is easier to experiment with and modify.
For best results I would advise building a Ramsey kit,
ordering a 38 kHz crystal from DC Electronics, and installing
the xtal in the Ramsey unit.  Just my opinion.

Hi there.
 
Last night I noticed something rather strange on my Fisher PH-430 analog SW 
receiver.  If I tuned to the end of the MW dial (say above 1620) I got WWV,
and if I tuned to ca. 850 or so, I got Radio Netherlands.  On SW, Radio
Netherlands came in extremely clear around 8600 or so (having an analog
tuner makes it difficult to be accurate) - as clear as a local FM or AM
station would be.
 
Are these harmonics (I wasn't sure about fractions of the fundamental
frequency) or what?

Pete.....I have my Sony 2010 hooked up to 65 feet of wire suspended about
25 feet off the ground. I did use the miniplug connector Sony supplied.
The ground terminal should not  improve reception. It just grounds the
to the frame of the radio and is for safety, not improved reception
(usually). I get terrific gain from my long wire antenna. Last night I
picked up Radio Australia, South Asian Broadcast using this setup. Without
the external, there was nothing but static (0230 UTC, 17720.0 kHz).
Check that your conections are tight. Also try the second jack they supply
in case something is wrong with the first. Possibly the wire with the clip
is better than your outside antenna for some reason. I have never tried to
compare the two. I will have to  try it and get back to you.

I purchased (and assembled) the DC FM kit about a year ago.  I haven't
used it because the frequency drifts too much (especially for a digitally
tuned receiver).

Are there any kits that use a PLL or crystal?

Also, any suggestions for building such a kit to run at "high" power?
I'd like to use an internal antenna and offset the efficiency of the
antenna by pumping more power into it.  Does that sound right?  (I
want a compact unit to plug into a car's cigarette lighter and into
the headphone jacks of a Walkman.)

Also(2), I saw a nifty device years ago that was essentially a cig.
lighter plug with a long wire and suction cup.  In the plug was an
FM(?) transmitter and mike, and the suction cup held the antenna to
the windshield.  Use two (and tune in on car radio) for car-to-car
communication.  Probably didn't work too well, but what a great idea
for quick/temporary installation.  Any ideas on building such a unit
that would be usable (power/range/...) and still legal?

Thanks!

    Ahh, so THAT's why.  I find that with a long wire antenna I
    can sort-of copy WWV.  However, I note that current ICOM advertising
    says it can receive something like 500kHz - 905Mhz.  They've
    backed off on the allband claim, which is good, since I find
    locally that I get cellular images up around 1200Mhz.

>than that, it is a great little radio, especially with a good antenna. The

    I second that.  The primary advantage of the ICOM is it's small
    and gets most everything you're likely to want to hear.  I like
    using it for portable monitoring, w/ an earphone.  I have the R1,
    a large external speaker, 3 antennas, a BP-90 AAA battery pack,
    an Opto. 2810 freq counter w/ antenna, 9 volt wall charger, 12
    volt wall charger, cigarette lighter power adaptor, and modified
    endcap for bypassing the internal battery, plus manuals, ALL packed
    in a waterproof Pelican case, model 1400.  You couldn't do that
    with a larger receiver.

    Throw the stock antenna in your junk drawer, then go out and
    buy a VHF rubber duck, and a VHF telescoping antenna. Beware
    however, that the BNC connector on the R1 is notoriously flimsy,
    so treat it very gently when you have a heavy telescoping antenna
    on it.

>only real problem is that with all of that functionality in a pocket sized

    I no longer have to except when trying to figure out which
    chargers work with which battery packs :-).  However, it took
    a while.  I used the R1 for a while, gave up, read the manual
    again after a few months, then started using it again.  Now I
    use it quite often, although I still haven't programmed all
    the channels yet.

    BTW, I've noticed that one of the ICOM handheld trancievers has
    the same reception capabilities as the R1.  This makes me wonder
    if there are a few wires in the R1 which can be cut to make it
    a transciever.  Anyone know?
