Hello all,

To cheer you all up , there is a guy living in Hawaii who regularly 
receives NDB's from Japan, Australia, Papua New Guinea and a lot 
more of remote Pacific locations.

No fancy equipment is used: a 1 transistor regenerative RX and a 70 
feet longwire, a high impedance headphone and the human brain to 
decode the Morse and last but not least pencil and paper to write 
down what is heard!

If you are really interested what is possible go to:

Select listener Steve Ratzlaff, La Grande NE Oregon, AA7U and see 
what he heard by aural copy with a couple of bog's.

(who once heard NDB IPA-280, Easter Island by aural copy on a 
pa0rdt-Mini-Whip and PERSEUS SDR)
