I'm wanting to get the cheapest starter antenna going. I've been researching and thinking a "Long Wire (Random)" is what I need.
I have a 20-30 ft length of coaxial cable to work with (one end stripped like far right in imagine below, one end with the F Connector still on).
Looking for advice and what needs to be done to get a basic setup going. Can it be connected as is? I realize it may not be able to receive clear signals from the moon, just looking for something basic to get started.
Receiver for reference is a Realistic DX-200.
