A New Amelia Earhart video
I thought this was a really interesting video: source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTDFhWWPZ4Q Rarely do any programs on Amelia Earhart's last flight get into any of the technical details like this one does. They usually just say that she wasn't a good radio operator and that navigator Fred Noonan was a drunk. And I didn't realize about the increased engine noise, even with headphones it would be hard to hear a null with the equivalent of a zillion leaf blowers bolted to the air frame. About the only RDF receiver I have is the Heathkit MR-1010 which I've mentioned before: https://wb9kzy.blogspot.com/2022/02/the-heathkit-mr-1010.html Older Heathkit RDF receivers had one feature the MR-1010 doesn't have, they also covered into HF - but after seeing this video I can see how that wouldn't necessarily be useful for direction finding. So Heath must have decided to leave out any coverage above the AM broadcast band. Best Regards, Chuck, WB9KZY http://wb9kzy.com/
