beerman Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Question about a great radio to take in on a fly in fishing trip. We like to listen to some music and radio stations while inthe bush.. The current radio we have does not get many channels while in the bush... Any reccomendations?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskieman Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Bring a 50' roll of speaker wire , twist a stripped end onto the antenna , twist a rock onto the other end and toss it into a tree.... Has worked for me for the past 20 years ..... My old radio has seen better days but still works and sounds great . Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often the external antenna on a transistor radio is for FM, the AM antenna is a bar wound with wire internal inside the radio, I've got better results wrapping the radio end of the antenna wire around the radio for AM reception. Used to pick up a lot of Midwest US AM stations at night from Haliburton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 You could hire "The Giesler Island Band" LMAO! The logistics may be difficult and the required booze to get them to play a song all the way through might add up as well, but a finer group of fishin muscians you'll not find!
