OUTDOORS PORTABLE WITH
THE REGENERATIVE RECEIVER


Back to the old days
When people did run barefoot in the snow
and they only had regenerative receivers!

December 17, 2002, 0640 - 0740 GMT.
I never listen so early and was curious how the activity was at this time of the day. Well, operating the receiver was very pleasant, heard a lot of stations, more than expected! Could not identify all the calls as there were many long QSO's without that the stations mentioned there calls very often.
