Hi Lucky,

It was ok.................. not a lot of gain in the I.F. system, but it
did have enough RF gain. It is probably a matter of preference, but I like
my radios to have their gain distribution set up so that the I.F. strip
provides most of the system gain. This way, you get a higher amount of
headroom in the front end if the gain in that section of the receiver
isn't too high.
It did work better than any of the portables I have used. I bumped up the
gain in the I.F. strip a little bit, and I was relatively happy with it.
I ended up trading it off in a combination deal for a Yaesu FRG-100, which
I ended up selling along with the optional CW filter and the FM board for
300 dollars. Some older fellow in one of the Carolinas bought it.

Hi Pete

would you say it's more a portable wise type perfromance? What did you do
with yours? Anything decent about it??

Lucky




Well Pete,

if you didn't end up keeping it that does say something about it. I just get
a kick out of new radios especially foreign ones.
Could they have improved them somewhat since you bought one? Was it the Lowe
SRX-100 or the Nasa Target HF3?
