Mike,

I'm using a Kenwood TS440. Sensitivity is very good at 136kHz. A small loop (1x1m) can be used without pre-amp, if I am using the TX antenna for receiving I need at least 30dB attenuation before the LF noisefloor is about 10dB above the RX noisefloor (so you are sure to have full sensitivity - you can hear any signal that comes out of the noise - and optimal IMD behaviour)

73, Rik   ON7YD

Citeren Mike Dennison <[email protected]>:

I am compiling a list of receivers and transceivers suitable for 136kHz. I know most of the older radios already but does anyone use a radio made in, say, the last five years that they use sucessfully? If so, does it need an LF pre- amp? Is the noise blanker any good on LF QRN and/or Loran? Is a narrow filter fitted as standard?

Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike, G3XDV
