Hi and welcome, another group you may be interested in is the Yahoo shortwave-SWL-antenna group. There is always lively debates on a range of topics concerned...
Hi Tom, Been reading the mail. Off topic Chris and I agree that this news group should only be concerned with the DX-394. Just out of interest though, our...
Hi,I'm new to this group and was last an active SWL in the 1960's! Today I use my 394B with a laptop to receive weather info on my boat (RTTY and FAX) using...
I've been dabbling in WEFAX reception on and off over the past 15 years! I wanted to use my 394 for a dedicated receiver for such things but there was so much...
Clive, That's good advice from Roger. RHF, the Moderator of that group, has assembled more than you would ever want to know about antennas at that site, and,...
Robin, Good to hear you and Chris are beavering away (sorry, that's a Canadianism) with exciting new developments on the DX-394 et al. I'm looking forward to...
I've never tried WEFAX with my DX-394's but have successfully decoded slow-scan TV, RTTY and various PSK or digital modes. I would have thought WEFAX would be...
The problem isn't with the mode (WEFAX), but the radio. I wasn't having much luck with quality images, so I connected the output of the receiver to the...
... What FAX software are you using? Most FAX programs require 1500 Hz for black and 2300 Hz for white. The DX-394 in USB only passes about 300Hz to...
Kurt, this prior message is pertinent: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RADIOSHACKDX394/message/3061 What you describe sounds like either a local interference or...

You may want to try a precelector instead of an ATU. You can look here: http://www.geocities.com/amdxlog/index.html Bob, N1KPR <<Do you use an ATU of any sort?...

Hi there,I've just finished setting up my listening post for hf-fax & rtty. I'm using my trusty DX394 with the JVcom32 software and it works well. This is...
Hi All. I am new to the world of communications receivers & was wondering just how useful the DX-394 is in the real world today. I have just come by one of...

I think that JVcomm32 is good software, but MMTTY is better than JVcomm for rtty. VERY good software is Radioraft (see: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/ radioraft/...
Very good is also Skysweeper Pro and Hoka Code (code3-32). But you need (minimum) Pentium 400MHz and 128M RAM and audiocard. For Radioraft you need only...
