This is a great and easy to use antenna, that will make a huge improvement on your shortwave radio reception.

Like that it comes with a plug and clamp on adapter. I can string it out either inside or outside (especially outside) and my shortwave signal strength jumps dramatically. Use it for fm too. I keep it with my XHDATA D109WB and use it for shortwave listening. I live in Ohio and can pick up signals from all over the US.

This retractable short wave antenna surprised me as to how well it worked. Sure you can get a 25 foot wire and solder it to alligator clips, but just try to stick it in your pocket when you’re done. With this antenna you can retract it when you are done, just like a tape measure. If you are on vacation you can unspool and then retract it when you are done whether you are on a cruse ship, (were radio signals travel better,), or on dry land, this little jewel can come in really handy. I’m an old short wave fan for more years than I care to admit, so I know what I’m talking about. This is a useful tool for the shortwave enthusiast, or just a casual listener, this little unit is worth a try.

I picked this up to use with the Tecsun R-909. It had gotten decent signals, but it really seemed like shortwave just didn’t have much on it. I clipped this thing on the telescopic antenna, pulled it out and used the lanyard to connect it out at the full 23-feet, and suddenly I had a ton more signals coming in clear as day. Every band had at least 4-5 broadcasts for me to check out, and beforehand, I could only reliably get good signal on a handful of frequencies. I’ve since played around with how I lay it out, and it’s extremely flexible. Maybe if you have an expensive setup you won’t be overly impressed, but adding this to the R-909 made a world of difference, and it’s portable enough that it can easily go into a bag, pocket, whatever when traveling.

Not super long range, but definately brings in stations that otherwise I could not receive with my radio. t does work like it says it does.

This is a very impressive gadget.I bought this antenna, because I was upgrading my handheld shortwave radio. The antenna included with the set was enough to pick up some very powerful stations, but I was interested in being able to re-create my childhood experience of listening to stations in Asia, Africa, and Europe.Certainly this antenna, the Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna, was able to deliver. Interestingly enough, shortwave radio extension is not my main use for it now though. The antenna comes with both a jack (1/8 inch) as well as a clip extension. My main computer is at the opposite end of the house from my Wi-Fi transmitter. One day I thought, “would the antenna extender increase the range of for the fidelity of my Wi-Fi reception on my main computer?”Somewhat surprisingly, the answer was a resounding yes summation point, I was able to get a 13 dB increase in my receptivity on my computer. Antenna extension has not left my office since then. :-)In addition to its usefulness, the antenna extender is very well designed. It comes with the carrying case that allows the cable to be rolled (and has a handy finger whole to allow you to quickly retract the cable). It also has the clip extender that allows it to be used even on equipment that doesn’t have Jack receptacle.I am very impressed with this product.One caveat, I do not recall seeing in the packaging material that this was an indoor item, but I highly recommend that it be used in an indoor environment. (You would probably want to have your plastic coating and a larger gauge wire for an outdoor application.)
