Re: WA Services on HF
Yeah, the Uniden covers 25Mhz and up. There are receivers that go down far enough but you'd have to do some research. You don't need a licence to listen to radio. You are restricted on iistening to certain types of transmissions like personal phone calls (eg cordless phones)richard omeara wrote:Sorry to jump in here.But what do i need to listern to these services?I have a uniden 996t with discone antenna.I take it i would need a HF radio to start and maybe a licence to use it.THANKS
Most of WinRadio's receivers cover down to 500kHz (or lower). Make sure you get one that can do SSB because some scanners that cover HF only do AM and FM.
Yaesu do this one There's also the Alinco DJ-X11E and DX-R8, Icom IC-R75, IC-PCR1500 and the rest of that series & IC-R8500. Then there's this little baby for around $18,000
You really should use a decent antenna as well, eg a long wire. Your discone is probably designed for VHF and UHF. A discone for HF would be huge.

Re: WA Services on HF
ah... forgot to mention
SES only use SSB- and it is USB
not sure about the other services
to listen to these services
A decent long wire antenna or sloper antenna to get started
http://www.bcara.org/ant2.htm
preferably a modern radio with digital tuning with USB / LSB
If you really decide to start chasing HF
sooner or later you will need a wide-band HF Balun and a decent earth

Re: WA Services on HF
They both look like great receivers. There's also this computer controlled unit from WinRadio for $1000 (Ozzie made too) Covers up to 50 MHz

Re: WA Services on HF
The Icom is a much better receiver.
The Yaesu is prone to overload on HF if hooked upto a decent antenna see reviews:

Re: WA Services on HF
on most of the frequencies, you can expect the signal to be heard hundreds or even thousands of kilometres away - particularly at nightchopper wrote:and what areas?
