Gang,

Recent discussion of CBY-46145 and BC-946B bring to mind my experience with R-24/ARC-5 as a BCB DX receiver.


Here's my log from our radio club's DX contest back in 2012:


Sadly, YVKS  has been QRT for a while now.

95% of the time you'll bemuch  better off with a tuned loop rather than a wire antenna.

Have fun,
