Another interesting thing. Listening to two "Amateurs"? On 1934khz LSB right now, been discussing football but not given any callsigns, Yorkshire accents. Good signal on the TRF and very clear, the reaction control gives a bit of fine tune. On the XHDATA D808 receivable but only just on the telescopic aerial.
Have you much aerial on the regen Trevor for receiving top band, or are you just using the Ferrite for that too?
I find that too much aerial / too heavily coupled aerial has adverse effects... Like overloading and damping of the detection
I was very excited once to hear a conversation on top band between what I thought was radio hams, one was talking about being in Paris! then I realised that they were transmitting AM, Naughty... Dawned on me that it was someone local with an old AM house phone.

Well done! Lots of thought gone into that! So no sand or soot anywhere to be seen in the signal path: design driver met
