From time to time, I'll shoot some DX video airchecks.. I feed the audio directly from my radio into the phone so its not some windy, echo video held up to the radio. I don't do anything special, just a headphone cord with a 3.5mm male (1/4") plug on each end, one plugs into my Zoom H1 handheld digital recorders headphone jack and the other end plugs into a special adapter that has jacks for a 3.5mm microphone plug and 3.5mm headphone plug that then goes into the USB-C port on my Iphone 15 Pro Max. The ZoomH1 is fed audio from the radio with the same type of cord as mentioned above and it goes from the radio to the line-in input of the Zoom H1.
You'll see alot of that set up and my DX gear in the videos below, which feature my favorite SW radio station. I use a TEF6686 Radio, DXEngineering Preamp, ZM2 Antenna tuner and 15 ft circumference Wellbrook Loop
Below are two videos of Radio Nacional de Amazonias on 11780khz. They operate from a site NW of Brasilia, Brazil with 100kw, beamed at 312 degrees azimuth. I am 250 miles NW of anchorage, 350 miles SE of Nome, some 5000-6000km out of their target zone but a perfect combination of a number of factors lead to delivering this kind of signal to my radio from 11780khz on a regular basis. I have searched far and wide for clips as good as mine, even from within Brazil and haven't come up with any
