The converter to 14 MHz is using an IC SO42E (similar to MC1496 or NE602). My best copy of SAQ so far, because of the new converter and the loop antenna. On the longwire antenne, however, SAQ has been almost unreadable. On next SAQ transmission I would like to compare the loop to a mini-whip active antenna far from the house, the cable screen also grounded far from the house. 73 Ha-Jo, DJ1ZB
