Just found this group and was reading about some mods that I will try on my dx394 to git rid of the cross modulation that is the biggest problem I have seen....
Welcome aboard, John. What do you mean by cross-modulation? My definition is: on the carrier of the desired frequency, you can hear the modulation of another...
Hi Folks. I did have problems with the DX394 which was suffering from RF Intermodulation problems as Tom says below introducing a tuned RF Preselector into...
Preselector = an antenna tuner? I think it is, i also have some wire around the house, a open dipole, 2x 16 meters, that is fed by a really thick coax cable...

Jack, you've made my day! It's gratifying to hear that you've had success with some of my mods and with Frank's. I'm sure he will be pleased, too, even though...
Hello everyone. Just found out about this group. I've owned a RS DX-394 for about three years now. Had some of the mods done to it about a year ago. What an...

Connected my 2-metre ham antenna to the DX-394 LO-Z input when 10-metres was hopping the other day and was surprised how much stronger signals were with it...
Hi Keith, yes I would like to receive the info. Thanks, Bob Keith Bass <ck-bas@...> wrote: Hi Robert. I found their ad in Monitoring Times Magazine....
Thanks Tom, I was abit confused about it, the MFJ-1046 is the best buy in my case. In my locale area, there arent any HAMS/or other broadcasters that may cause...
Hi Jorgen, sounds like your problem is more with inadequate selectivity after the radio frequency front end than with front end overload distortion. A...
Jorgen, that's what this site is for - I was delighted to discover that Jim had started it, already had a good collection of material and 108 members - would...
Jorgen, you've got me thinking (that's not always a good thing!). If we made this well-organised DX-394 FAQ page(s) in HTML with the links to the referenced...
Hi I have been interested in the antenna postings recently which spurred me to complete a home brew version of the 'Miracle Whip' antenna published in the...

G'day from 'Oz'. I have owned a 'C' model DX-394 for about five years now, and so far I have not modified the radio itself. I love it :-) I enjoy listening to...
Greetings to all on the list ! I'm a new DX-394 owner and I have some questions. Is the RX capable of tuning in 10Hz steps ? 100Hz steps is just a bit coarse...
For anyone interested in DRM, the software is now available for 60 euros. A very simple electronic tuner described below is the minimum receiver required. I...
