Re: [HCDX] Question about Minidisc recorders

["M. van Arnhem" <mvarnhem@xxxxxx>]

Thank you all for all the information.
I also heard earlier from DXers that as long as outdoor aerials are operated
with screened
coax from the aerial to the receiver, there is no interference from the
minidisc.
However this is difficult when travelling with a portable receiver and a
minidisc.
And that is my problem. I still own a good portable cassetterecorder which I
use when travelling, but some day this (old) cassetterecorder will cease
operation and at that moment I want to have the possibilty to use some other
recording device.
So, I am still anxious to know if there are already good minidiscs which
don't produce this interference when they are connected to a (Sony
ICF7600GR) portable receiver.
A fellow DXer has a Sharp (type MD-MT99) minidsic which also produces
interference but much less than the Sony MZ-R700 I used in connection with
my Sony portable receiver.
So, maybe there are other brands that produce no interference?
