I`ve decided to purchase a Grundig Satelitt 750. And I`m looking into antenna possibilities. Currently I have a leftover small window sill dipole with a BNC connecter. Not even sure the Grundig has an input for this.
This upcoming spring I would like to install something more for this radio. I live In a cold weather climate so I will wait for warmer weather to install any sort of antenna.
My yard is very small which will challenge me to devise a antenna solution for this radio. I have considered running an antenna of sorts under my eave of the house. Going in one direction that would only give me about 20 feet.
I understand this is way too short, but could I feasibly use an antenna this short with an antenna tuner to work in the shortwave bands?
Obviously I haven't ever operated an antenna tuner before.
And if this setup would possibly work, what would be a good choice for a decent but not expensive tuner?
