Whooshing sound
#27

Chas, I have the early version set with the squelch circuit and it lets you adjust the noise in between the stations but I get the whooshing on most of the broadcast stations when they are tuned in and the squelch has no effect on them. The radio plays really well when it is located outside in the balcony. I keep thinking I can run a rg-58 coax cable from the inside of the apartment to the balcony and then attach a long wire to the center conductor outside but I guess I can be wrong. I am not sure what a Hopkins filter is but I will do a google search on it. I just hope I can make the radio play well somehow inside the apartment, it took me a long time to restore the chassis. I see "vinzer" suggested a tuned loop but I need some instructions on how to make or buy it. Any suggestions are very welcome. Thanks guys !!

-Carlos
