Radios

 

Shortwave-World Band
Listen to: News—Sports—Commentary—Music

Hear the news being reported (in English or another language) from countries all around the world. There is a lot going on in the world and you need to know how you may be affected. Learn about other people’s customs and politics. Travel without leaving home. Some popular USA stations include WBCQ,  WRNO, WWCR, WHRI, KNLS, etc.
Hear warnings, distress calls - Coordinate aid.
Tune in interesting talk shows. Hear important local news which should be reported nationally but isn’t. Hear vital information during a disaster.
Hear truths the regular media suppresses.  There are many good programs on the environment, religion, music, government, money, science, patriotism, education, new inventions/discoveries. Tune to 5.000, 7.335, 10.000 or 15.000 MHZ for the accurate time.
You may find yourself liking radio better than TV!  Improve reception with long wire antenna. Shortwave radio signals bounce off the upper atmosphere (ionosphere). Signal may fade in and out. Some stations are easier to pickup during the evening and night, some are better during daytime. A length of wire can be clipped to the antenna to greatly improve reception.
Good Gift Idea  Shortwave radio listening is a great hobby. Not only is it fun and practical, it is low cost, very interesting with lots of variety. Everyone should have at least one.

Portable Shortwave Antenna  This pocket sized low cost 23’ long wire antenna improves reception. Compact reel-type case for fast windup of wire. Has 1/8” plug for radios with jack and has universal clip for attaching to telescoping antennas. Recommended. 2-3/4”x 3-3/4” x 5/8”.

Select-A-Tenna
Antenna Booster for
AM Radio (not shortwave)
  Simple to use - Portable - Made in USA,  Will not help radios in a vehicle.

Select-A-Tenna is the best AM signal enhancer made for radios, even expensive radios. Simply place Select-A-Tenna near your portable or clock radio to inductively couple the unit to your radio. Tune in the radio station and then turn the knob on Select-A-Tenna until you hear the station volume increase. AM radio talk shows are very popular, but reception distance can be limited. The daytime range can be doubled with Select-A-Tenna. Adjacent station rejection is also improved. This helps when station signals are too strong. No AC or DC power required on regular or M models. A +30 dB gain is typical. 535 to 1700 KHz frequency range. 10-3/4” x 2-1/4”.
A420    Regular   4 lbs   $60    Special $46
Model M has the same features and specifications but with a jack for connecting to external long wire antenna and ground wire. This model is useful for conducting signals inside all-metal buildings, basements, campers or trailer houses. The jack also allows the unit to be directly connected to a radio's antenna and ground terminals when the radio has no internal ferrite rod antenna. 10-3/4” x 2-1/4”.
A421
  
Model M   4 lbs   $70    Special $55
Super Model is more powerful with a +40dB gain (10 dB more than the other models). This model also works better on radios with poor inductive coupling (such as the very popular model pictured) or for large case radios. It has an internal regenerative amplifier with variable 0 to +10 dB gain control knob. Requires a 9V battery (not included). Has Coarse and Fine Tuning controls for ease of operation at the higher gain settings. Includes a small remote ferrite probe to place near radio when there's not enough room for the Select-A-Tenna. 10-3/4” x 2-1/4”.
A422  Model S   5 lbs   $ 190  Special $179  

  The Model S may be used in any of four different modes: 
(1) Direct Near Proximity just like the regular and model M. 
(2) Ferrite Probe Near Proximity. 
(3) Direct Wired Antenna Connection.
(4) External Antenna and Ground for metal-buildings when using modes 1 and 2.

The Model S has a high-signal level and low-impedance balanced drive port for the ferrite probe. This provides the capability to not only drive the 6 ft. coaxial cable and probe, which are included, but the cable may be extended to as much as 26 ft using extension cables readily available locally.  This is very useful for remotely locating the Model S away from radio noise sources or into better signal locations, when moving the radio itself may be inconvenient.
