[QUOTE="hexah, post: 854807, member: 333852"] I never had much of an interest in radio dx although knowing about antennas and propagation occasionally made me popular on holidays. I was into tv dx mainly in band I and sometimes in band III, with Iceland and Spain being the most common visitors. I made my own aerials partly because by then there wasn't much choice off the shelf but mainly so I could make them as I liked, the largest band I having 6 elements. Then in the 1980s satellite broadcasting started to cable head ends and I got into satellite dx at that time. Fortunately there was a pre-loved market even then so it wasn't as painful as it could have been. [/QUOTE]
