Well I have been messing around with this thing for a while now and I do seem to get some reception if the radio is tuned to 1mc and then the converter seems to work though rather poorly. I put some signals into it from my signal generator and its fairly close but does not seem to be very sensitive. I think we will call this an interesting novelty.
