It should be noted that the old aerial was NOT the original that came with the TEF6686, that was horrible & bent easily. I think my old aerial might have been a 1980's 2m/70cm amateur radio handheld telescopic, but without any loading coil, just a whip and had a BNC fitting

Today's radio experiment compared a cheap set of two new DAB/FM radio telescopic aerials from China with old one used on my small TEF6686 radio. Tuned to 92.5 MHz BC FM the original showed a signal strength of S9+30db, the new aerials reduced this to only S3! Refund applied๐Ÿ“ป๐Ÿ“ก๐Ÿ“ถ

All set for the ISS SSTV Event. Starting Feb 13 ca 1200 UTC. Using Orbitron to track ISS and switch on SDR# on 437.55 MHz nominal, with Doppler correction. In between passes I have set SDR# to default to 144.39 MHz for APRS as an iGate station.

Interesting, I just had a radio contact on 18 MHz FT8 with an Italian station call sign IT9RTM/SUB, I thought to myself it can't be operating from a submarine can it? It seems it might be from this image I just found ๐Ÿ“ป๐Ÿ“กHowever the submarine depicted may have been sunk in 1942
