A receiver circuit is described which, in its basic contiguration,
opens up the trequency range below the range allocated to
long-wave broadcast services. This so-called VLF (very low
frequency) range is particularly interesting to the radio
amateur because it is used by weatherfax and other utility
stations. Several stations can be received which transmit
weather charts, satellite images tor sea and air navigation, and
miscellaneous meteorological data. The receiver is simple to
modity for shortwave reception on 80, 40 or 20 metres.
