Tom's field portable car roof HF antenna.

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, TomL, who shares a recording he made of the Voice of Korea on June 14, 2018. This English broadcast focuses on the Singapore summit and is, no doubt, historic in its content. [Note that we've posted other recordings on the Shortwave Radio Audio Archive.]

TomL notes:

Recorded on my noisy Lenovo laptop, SDRPlay RSP2, and an unamplified 18.5 foot antenna on the roof of my SUV.

I'm most impressed with the quality of his recording-VOK is not the easiest station to snag in the US midwest:

Thank you for sharing, Tom! I love your field portable vertical-obviously, it's doing a fine job and your car must make for a decent ground plane!
