I bought the metal case upgrade kit from Amazon for $29.95
Of course I always wanted to put my SDR inside a metal case for cooling and reduce RF interference plus it looks more like a professional radio. Of course I would keep the old case because the serial number sticker is at the bottom of case and also if you wanted to sell the SDR. I'm very happy with the purchase. :)
You can buy it here from Amazon for $29.95

Vintage Zenith Transoceanic H500 Daytime bandscan of shortwave and mediumwave from the boiler room
I recently did a daytime bandscan of shortwave and mediumwave bands with my vintage Zenith Trans-Oceanic H500 shortwave radio from my boiler room in the basement of my home located in Yonkers New York USA. I connected the radio to my MFJ-1886 receive loop antenna using a SO239 to BNC male adapter to a BNC to banana plug standoff with a pair of speaker wire connected to the back of the radio on the antenna screw type terminals. Conditions was not the best for shortwave and also it was around 12 noon. Mediumwave band was better, of course this radio can only go up 1600 kHz on Mediumwave. The radio still works well after all these years. I would like someday to do a total recap of this radio.

I'm listening outdoors in my backyard with my XHDATA D-808 shortwave portable radio using the SV2CZF AM Ferrite Antenna to fine tune this am signal. This radio station was recently back on the air after being off the airwaves for 2 years. It was nice to pick this station again. I will do a future review of this antenna I purchased on Ebay for the price of $39.99 not including shipping cost.

Please excuse the fading of the signal, there are several strong stations in the U.S. on this frequency. You can skip to the halfway mark for the better audio signal, clearly it's from Cuba and able to verify from several websites of it's origin.
