MW/SW-receiver:
- Ciao H101 (SDR-receiver, bought 2007) and Grundig Satellit 600 (bought 1985)
Antennas:
- 80 meters long "L" (directed to North, only possible direction)
- 200 meters long "L" (directed to South, only possible direction)
I live in quite urban area with a lot of houses around (luckily also some woods). Very often I have a lot of noises covering all
MW/SW-bands and it is impossible to listen. I don't know where these intererencies are coming from. TV-sets?

FM-receivers: (all with 80 kHz or 110 kHz filters)
- Marantz ST-450 (87.5-108; over 20 years old but good with high local signal levels!)
- Sony ST-S311 (87.5 - 108.0 MHz; frequency scanning possibility)
- Yamaha T-80
- Behringer-mixer and C-casette / minidisc-recorders
- FM-phaser (I can phase out some local FM-stations with it and 2 antennas)
- Conrad RDS-decorder (connected to PC)
FM-antennas:
Mast 1: - 8-element horizontal yagi with Voltage Controlled Amplifier ( amplifies 2-3 MHz at a time)
- 2 x 8-element vertical yagis stacked together
- Skyking rotator to choose direction of these antennas
Mast 2: (not visible on the photos)
- 8-element horizontal yagi
- Dipole for TV-channel E3 (for monitoring Sporadic E's MUF)
- all coax wires are about 35 meters long from the roof to receiver
My problem is high-power YLE-FM-transmitters 13 km away here (to SE-direction, 6 x 50 kW). This means that my
receivers must stand quite high signal-levels. Also wide-band amplifier is not possible to use.
Well, this could be worse of course.
