I did not receive any statione outside Germany. Too much noise by mains, TV etc. A small marconi, 10m vertical and 2x10m on top, although fenced in by surroundings, works satisfactory. I rx G3LDO barely aural to give one example. Facit: there are locations where a loop is pretty qualified to detect noisesources - and nothing else. vy 73 dj9dw, jo40le, nr Frankfurt, Peter.
