Aircraft Receiver

[Shockwave]

I was especially impressed with the conversion of the detector from FM to AM. Simply throw the quadrature coil out of alignment and call it a day. As if that addresses the limiter in front of the detector that removes AM content. While it could work the sound and sensitivity would be lacking. Notice he has real good line of site to that control tower.

I have a Grundig S750 with airband and a Grecom PSR-300 scanner that does all the A/C band and I hear everything.

Like someone else said any scanner will scan the A/C bands...

ARI Receiver kit

Ramsey electrinoics has kit you can build. The ARI works great.

I meant to say the ABM1 passive air band monitor kit works real well. If you have them put the kit together they will charge 70.00 dollars. Ramsey Electronics.

One such modification involves a CB to VHF using a crystal from a toaster. No such component in a toaster and VHF is FM mode not AM (except for aeronautical).

I thought the toaster video was funny.
