but theres only preachers and china. :/

I keep hearing this repeated noise on 9.980mHz can somebody identify?

Decided to take the radio out while camping in Oklahoma and caught this. Is it really from Turkey?

Sorry I keep pressing buttons, I just bought the radio so I'm still figuring out what makes it sound the best.

Hello everyone,

new to shortwave listening. My primary goal is to try listening to international radio stations broadcast via shortwave (but also, potentially, other waves as well, so that the learning process can continue). After doing some research, I purchased the following two products, aiming to put together a basic, budget-friendly setup.

- Receiver: AMNVOLT V4 SI4732

- Antenna: MLA-30+

Briefly after purchase, I found out that some online sources suggest that the receiver and the antenna might not be compatible. Many others, in contrast, claim they are. As a beginner, I don’t yet have the expertise to evaluate these technical conflicting opinions; could someone with more experience help me out (and perhaps offer some advice on how to get this setup working)?

Thank you very much in advance for your time!
