1Ж42А. As a mixer/Frequency changer????

[BusyBee]

I like the video's. It's interesting with the frame aerial. I was impressed with a transistor radio I have at how well it was picking up Caroline until I realised that it was sitting underneath my frame aerial which I keep tuned to Caroline lol. Obviously I am a lot closer and in some ways it can be regarded as local and a standard for checking. It has made me wonder about multi element aerials but, partly due to lack of space, that is probably unlikely. I think a limitation with the 1ж42а is how scarce they are but I have some 1ж37б which can be used in similar ways.

Thanks for more useful information Mike.
