You can hear 700 WLW out of Cinci in the middle of Nebraska on a clear night.

You guys having radio trouble make sure you have wires plugged into the back of your radio for an antenna. Add wire to it run it outside of your pole barn for example. Wire loops are supposed to make a good antenna. There might be both AM and FM ports.

I am contemplating letting my license expire , I don't use it much and those dirty buggers raised the registration to 65 dollars now.

if radio was my only thing and I was active that wouldn't be a big deal but man everyone wants a fee now to keep your credentials.

GCP, where are you getting the $65 cost to renew from? Mine is up for renewal next year and from what is posted now on the FCC, ARRL, and other websites it is only $35 to renew for another 10 years. There are some places that do charge a fee for completing the renewal for you, but you do not have to use them unless you just want the convenience of not doing it yourself. The new fee started in 2022 and hasn't changed to my knowledge.

now I need to look at that , maybe I am confusing a different fee that went up , seems everything keeps going up , or my money is worth less I guess you could say


35 I might do

And run a ground wire. Be surprised what a difference this makes

GE Super radio 3 if you can find one.

That’s a great AM radio, and like you say, if you can find one. Had one at the cabin for many years.

I still have mine, some are found used on eBay, etc.

That’s what I have in the shop now. Not crazy impressed with it actually. I need to hook up a good ground and outdoor antenna but I’m only 30 miles or less from some stations that are fuzzy, even on AM.

Have extra class ham, used to have broadcast license. I'm told that I have the perfect face for radio.

I'm 65-70 miles north of NYC and hear stations down there perfectly on mine.
