TV DXing- for real? That is just amazing.

Just an average performer, but I'm very fond of my Blond 21-D-7177E RCA. Wish I could locate a NOS 21AMP4.

I forgot the KRMA channel 6 photo attachment. This reception was in late June 2009 after most of the analog TV stations had shut down. The few remaining VHF analog channels were just showing looped presentations.

Note the WPBT channel 2 was about 1000 miles, KRMA channel 6 was about 900 miles and channel 2 Monterrey Mexico about 1200 miles. And these were received directly by the original KRK5 RCA tuner in the set.

I'm more of a solid state guy..it's what I 'cut my teeth' on...I didn't evn dig into a tube set until later on.

SO, that being said, i'm going on a limb here and saying it's my 1976 XAM 13" color metal cabinet tv...here it is listening to first responders on UHF 14...great pic, Toshiba Blackstripe 1 crt
