So, I'm thinking of getting this little shortwave. And putting it in a small antique cathedral style wooden housing.
I would also like to increase it's strength.
I'm not sure if this is the right forum area to ask about moving the variable capacitors and potentiometers of the circuit board and onto the front of the wood housing, but another question I have is about the signal strength.
Would attaching multiple antennas to the one antenna wire increase the strength?
I tested this principle on a much cheaper handheld radio, attaching the 2, 15 inch antennas I have to it's original, and then overpowering it by an extra AA (it blew up of course) but before it went out, I got half a minute of the strongest signal I've heard out of any radios in the house so far.
