Over 40 years of experience inform the reviews and commentary presented on Dave's Radio Receiver Page, covering a wide array of radio receivers and transceivers. The resource details specific models such as the **ICOM IC-R8600** SDR Communications Receiver, which is lauded as Icom's best wide-band receiver, even surpassing the IC-R9500 in performance. Other notable reviews include the ICOM IC-7300 HF Transceiver, highlighting its direct sampling SDR technology and spectrum scope capabilities, alongside numerous models from Japan Radio Co. (JRC), Kenwood, Yaesu, and various portable shortwave receivers. The content provides practical insights into the performance and characteristics of each radio, often drawing comparisons between models. For instance, the early issues with the AOR AR7030 receiver's Bourns mechanical encoders are thoroughly documented, including AOR's eventual switch to higher-quality Alps encoders. The page also features reviews of antennas like the MFJ-1026 Noise Canceling Signal Enhancer and various power supplies, offering a holistic view of radio monitoring setups. The author's "2 ear / 2 eye method" emphasizes real-world listening experiences over laboratory measurements, providing a unique perspective on equipment utility.

How repair the traps, and then homebrew the rest of the antenna, including the matching box

The original G5RV antenna system consists of a center-fed horizontal 102' wire plus a 34' length of open-wire 525-Ohm feeder. Louis Varney, the antenna system's developer, intended two other features. Learn more at Cebik website

A quarter wave vertical end-fed antenna for the 40 meters band. As all vertical antennas, also this aerial requires a good earthing system. In this project the ground is composed by twelve 4, wires buried in the lawn by using a spade to create a slit to drop the wire into.

This article refers mainly to the old Cushcraft 1/4 wavelength AV series of antennas (12AVQ, 14AVQ etc) hence the references to radials. The R series (R5, R7 etc) are 1/2 wavelength antennas, and the radials are NOT 1/4 wavelength resonant.
