Hi all

If I change the tank circuit components (reduce the capacitance and
inductance) and change the transistors to appropriate VHF ones, will I
be able to pick up ATC (Air Traffic Conversations) using this
circuit ?

Thanks
Shelto,

I have tried to read and understand the posts in this thread the best I
can. Can someone tell me; Is there a problem for the aircraft industry, or
me, if I sit at the end of Regan National airport outside DC and use this,
