[R-390] IF out

[Dave Maples]

All: I have to say that propagation has been a lot spottier over the past
year or so than before.  Worst I have heard in 3+ sunspot cycles,
methinks...

Subject: [R-390] IF out


A few years ago I took the IF out from my 390A and hooked it to the
antenna input of my SONY-2010, and tuned to a station with slop from an
ajacent freq, Turned up the Sony volume and flipped on the Synch detector,
and low and behold the interference was gone.

The Sony audio does not match the great low frequencies you can get from
the detector output on the 390, and I have the one with the probe jack on
the front panel.

Since my 390 quit a couple years ago the bands have died.  I have a lot of
receivers, including a zenith console, and everything is gone.

Interesting that project HAARP made their own aroura borealis a few months
back.  I live in the aroural zone, and radio has always been weird.

Now I can't get anything on the ham bands.  Late nite talk show host Art
Bell (also a ham) has mentioned that there is something wrong with the
ionosphere, his band conditions are like mine.

The only thing on shortwave is EWTN, they cut through everything.  Always
have.  WWCR is spotty.
