Once again, the Sony ICF-2001D performs very well with this large antenna, but as on previous occasions, the rule is always to\u00a0&#8216;choose your battles well&#8217; targeting weak DX signals in uncrowded areas\u00a0of the Tropical Band and elsewhere on shortwave. More details on the longwire\u00a0antenna to follow in another post. Recorded at the &#8216;DX woods&#8217; in Oxfordshire, UK on 31\/07\/16 at 00:27 hrs UTC.
