Re: [IRCA] Transatlantic DX heard on SRF- M37V Pocket Radio

In Nfld., you could get that stuff on the fillings in your teeth. Assuming 
you have fillings, that is, but maybe even if you don't, heh. This would be 
a great place to try these ultralight radios. Spent over a week at a 
DXpedition with Jim Renfrew this fall on the Avalon Peninsula, facing Europe 
AND Brazil, and would have loved to have had one of these for comparison 
with the Drakes and longwires we were using. There were times I really would 
have loved to null a few of the stronger TA pests, and it would have been an 
interesting test. I am also eager to run wire towards the Canadian west, and 
also to Thailand, South Korea and Japan, and an ultralight at the right time 
just around or post-sunrise would be interesting to try there, under the 
right conditions. I like the idea, too, that I could walk to the beach, well 
away from power lines and other noise, and try there.
