My grid locator is EN80.

Currently using an Eton Elite 750 for listening.

Antenna is a 1/10 vertical ground plane mounted 12 feet in the air roughly 200 feet from the radio. The vertical GP does a surprisingly good job pulling in signals.

I have a second vertical GP mounted at the same site tuned to 89.7 MHz for low power FM transmission.

There is also a 300 foot Beverage antenna oriented to the north and a 1/10 horizontal dipole for 40M out there.

The radio is feed into a Sansui AV-C10 amplifier and then to a Yamaha MG12XU soundboard before hitting the soundcard. This gives me a lot of control over amplification and EQ of the incoming signal.

Recordings are made from one of the MG12XU AUX outputs to a TASCAM DR-40X (mono).
