While it may be fun and nostalgic to attempt serious DXing with small vintage analog-dial tube-type table models, I suspect that you need a bit more selectivity and sensitivity than these sets can provide. Have you attempted AM DXing with your ICOM IC-725?... it should be quite a good performer!
Pip, the DX cat says that ICOMS are purrrrrty good!
