I know this radio has a great reputation for SW reception, My
question is how does it do on BCB MW reception??
BCB
Hmmm.....
- OK
An external antenna helps;
but this is NOT IMHO a bcb heavy receiver;
It's designed NOT to really pick up BCB too well ( This eliminates overload)
you'd have to have Mods done to make it a BCB heavy set..
- However, I can usually pick up BCB stations ~1000 miles away..
Is an external speaker really needed?
IMHO, yes...
Either headphones, or Computer-type speakers;
( I mean, No sense in Icom making a Huge cabinet with a Huge speaker
if you can
have a " here's the signal" internal speaker
& a port for a good set of external speakers;
