Yes, but they don't have working antennas.

Well.......thats better than using a G5RV...........
Meh. I'll raise you an Isotron.
I do AM from time to time. My favorite AM rig is my Flex 3000.

Yeah, I'm an AM'er. I have a Johnson Viking 2, a Valiant, a Globe king 500 a Kenwood receiver and a few old boatanchor tube receivers. I am also the one without a functioning antenna, my Inverted Vee was wrecked in a storm and I haven't put it back yet, although I have the stuff I need so it will be going back up soon. I was on 75 and 40 and 10 m AM a lot back in the mid-late 80's and early-mid 90's during which time I got into the New England / East Coast AM sound.... No G5RV's here, just telegraph wire and balanced line and Johnson Matchboxes. ;)Originally Posted by KC2IFR

I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Used to be, will be again very soon.
John -- all those great AM radios and no motivation to get that antenna up? Tsk Tsk.
If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.

No, there isn't "no motivation". There is actually strong motivation and it has been growing in strength. I do have other interests that come first but, I am anxious to get things going for HF because I am sick of being limited to VHF/UHF. So yeah, we will have that aerial up soon.
