/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1347021
I mostly listen to VHF on an old radioshack scanner.

I do listen on an old panosonic domestic radio with shortwave sometimes but only to the AM guys. Have an old Helicrafters S120 I found on a junk throw out but it has to run on 110 volts plus it drifts pretty bad / warbles with AC hum on SSB. I listen to 160 on pic related. Have a rtlsdr.

Also listen to websdrs.

Had a random long wire but that broke not long back and have not fixed it yet. Used to have a /diy/ discone up but its been in the shed for years since CB antennas went up on the same pole. I mostly listen to that rather than actually speak.

Not sure I've heard japs but I have heard loads of asian pirates "shit posting" on the bottom end of 40 metres.
