Forget big towers and huge high long wires, build a secret antenna for medium wave DX that no-one in your neighbourhood can even see and it will fit in a small yard.

BBC 648 😭I mis it so much.....!
There is no radio licence , it was abolished over 50 years ago .
Who in this day and age watches live TV.
There is no licence needed for radio anymore apparently
Agree 100% about the SD card, should have been for recording. Unless it's for listening recordings from some other device, such as Tecsun Q3 (included in the Tecsun PL 990x kit) Other than that, I'm pretty excited about this
Oh werrd son
❗ *THIS IS TV LICENSING* You are required by *law* to have a *VALID* TV licence if you are in possession of a TV set or other electronic devices which are capable of receiving and viewing live TV broadcasts. If you are found watching any live TV broadcasts at your property while NOT in possesion of a TV licence *YOU WILL BE LIABLE FOR PROSECUTION* If found guilty of this offence you may receive a prison sentence and 10 years hard labour in the gulag. Our investigations department has your address on file and our powerful TV detector vans operate in your area and will monitor your property for illegal activity. Our officers may call at your address at any time without notice and interview you under caution.
9 years for me Sir, I'm still going through the same speech to convince my mom and dad to cancel theirs, same story it again involves a paedo.
Yep stop watching the propaganda channel government the mouth piece,
I've stopped paying the TV tax because I don't want to fund propaganda, lies, groomers and pedophiles.
Do not allow any of these BBC thugs to intimidating you.
How old is your RE27? Is it Made in USA or Mexico?
I live in the Midwest USA and at night I pick up MW stations on both coasts with my General Electric Super Radio lll. Cheers
Very cool! Thx!
In my area of the states, we had (and still have) 700 WLW Cincinnati and 840 WHAS Louisville which are (or were) "clear channel" stations -- 50,000 watt stations that you could hear over most of the US in the evening. There was also WLS from Chicago. I can remember when the latter two still played music (but usually mixed in with more talk than FM), while WLW was the station I would tune in to hear Cincinnati Reds baseball games. I have not tried listening in years because, as you mention, the band has become much nosier and is mostly talk radio. One thing I remember from my teen years... I had a 1967 Rambler that only had AM radio (medium wave). The two types of interference it was most likely to pick up were lightning and the firing of the engine's spark plugs!
no contract, no contact
Peter, what you up to now? No video's for a while.
Long gone cfun Vancouver used to blast great music and incredible music across western Canada. I miss real non canned radio.
If you have physical media like dvds, blu rays, etc. you should look into setting up a media server. It’s super easy, way cheaper than TV or having Netflix & Hulu & Disney+ & Paramount+ & HBO Max lol
airband?
Very nice. Informative
I have many fond memories of medium wave listening. As a kid I used to spend hours tuning through the dial, especially in the dark evenings. The dials taught me a lot of geography. We used to listen to the Archers as a family, and while the reception was ok in the summer months, come winter and the dark evenings there was a German station that must have shared the same wavelength and started up with its repeating call sign, Hier ist der deutsche reichsender 904 followed by a short jingle. So soon after the war that was not a popular intrusion! Our radioset then had a turntable and it was possible to minimize this breakthrough with the 'wireless' half facing the wall. I still have a Sony ICF-SW10 pocket radio which I occasionally DX with. I've noticed that the long wave is almost empty now, except for radio 4. It's very sad, as you say.
In the 1960s and 1970s...we had KHJ (boss radio) on 930khz.....and KRLA (Hit Radio 11) on 1110khz in Los Angeles California...XETRA (Xtra Gold) on 690khz and XERB (Radio North America) on 1090khz both from Mexico... playing oldies... they were great.. Good Jocks and Great Music 🎵🎵🎶🎶.... Great Memories Too 😮
I never watch live content anymore, i don't even own a TV, but for some reason this just annoys them and they hound you even more.
As a schoolboy, built s crystal radio with dad that received medium wave. Sadly i cant show that to my kid, the Helsinki MW shut down over a decade ago. There also used to be long wave (LW), in Finland there was a powerful LW transmitter in Lahti (100km north of Helsinki. Its two tall towers were a landmark (and still stand, although the transmitter has not been operating for a long time). This station could be heard all over the country.
Only watch Netflix, RUclips and Prime Video, but don’t watch any Live TV on Prime Video and YT.
A friend did some great DXing hooking up his MW radio to a 100 foot chain link fence.
Rediffusion ran the first TV station (it was cable) in HK.
Where can I get a stethoscope?
Thank you for your honest opinions I and others really appreciate them and you, I have been into shortwave radio for decades now and have enjoyed listening to English speaking foreign stations and still do. Take care and stay safe. 👍
I defunded the beeb because of their biased behaviour towards the Reform Party 🇬🇧 disgraceful
Loved the mic 👍 How do you tune the SWR, do I cut bits off the aerial ? Thanks for your great videos.
😂😂😂😂😂
wonder when radio 5 goes, they will boost Radio Caroline ?
American here. Glad to see some Brits still have a sense of humor. Pip Pip Cheerio.
Well done, Pete 😊 Why should you pay for left-wing extremist propaganda. 😂😂😂😂
Yea yea 😁

Radio Northsea International
I got my PL-990 probably 2 years ago. It replaces my 8-band Panasonic bought new in 1975, almost 40 years old and still working. Went a few years without a radio and got the PL-990. Only a fraction of the size of the Panasonic and a ton cheaper, the Panasonic was $150 in 1975. I think the internal build quality, have not actually opened, is better. Perhaps glass epoxy boards rather than the common brown phenolic boards. Also the use of the 18650 battery gives good runtime and is readily available. The same battery used in my flashlights. The OEM battery with its built in charger, i do not like. Heat from the internal charger will degrade the battery. Always charge all my batts using separate chargers and charge at a slow rate. Extra batts are a must, IMO.
Hi great informative video. U remember well . Some time back mondial was going to be digital stations on me am bands Regards mark
Is it Polish Greyhound the doggy?
Thank you so much for this video. I too just received a Tecsun PL990 and really enjoy the AM and FM stations in my area. I now want to try listening to shortwave stations. I am currently using an MLA-30+ loop antenna. But, would a long-wire antenna be a benefit, maybe a straight 50 foot, or possibly an L-shaped 100 foot antenna? Any recommendations for a long-wire? Thank you.
Switching power supplies are a big problem.
Thanks, you have saved me a heap of money 🤑
WJDX, AM 620, Jackson, Mississippi was the station I grew up listening to as a child in the seventies. Wonderful video! Cheers from the sunny South of the USA, mate!
Good for you mate 👏👏👏
Hopefully they'll go subscription only or simply have ads like in Ireland so they could half the cost of any license perhaps . The beeb have gotten fat too big for their boots. The amount of our money they waste on brain dead tv progs and extortionate salaries is criminal
What a lovley dog😊
