Long Distance Reception
"Fr *. Some astonishing reports of longdistance reception bob up from time to time, but the latest from Aus_tralia takes a lot of beating. A listener in Parkes, New South Wales, claims to have an extraordinary onevalve set which not only brings in 2FC, 2BL, 83LO and 8AR in the middle of the day and they are heard in the night time without an aerial on headphones, or with an aerial on the loudspeaker. Parkes is about 200 miles’ from Sydney, and 300 miles by airline from Melbourne. He also says/ he gets 7BY (Bombay), JOAK (Jat pan), 7ZL (Hobart), 5CL (Adelaide), 2GB (Sydney) and 4QG (Brisbane) at good headphone strength at nighttime.
