Thanks. Very interesting designer. I like his style.

If you’re an amateur radio operator, you’re probably familiar with his antenna designs.

He makes antennas for everyone from NASA to the CIA to satellite companies.

And yes, he’s serious about the pizza pans.

I have the TenTec 320.

A German company used to publish the SW schedules for free, one month into each quarter, as DB or text file.

I missed being able to search for English, on now, and double click to tune in, rather than searching.

Never got around to making the mods to make it really work down to 100hz, and DRM. Seem to remember a paper clip could be used for trying out DRM.

Thanks, I have most if not all of them.

I generally use GNR. I guess I’m going to have to get a USB-RS232 adapter. My c. 2001 motherboard is dying.
