Oh, No! Not another Republican Gov't Receiver! Where are the real
shortwave receivers that the public can use like the DRM/AM type??
The
FCC will NOT approve this for the the general public (us SWL's) to
use
it will not be approved but only for the rest of the world and
maybe
other governments might not approve it ethier even the UK. If it
was
a portable no problem. or something smaller that does not cover
VHF/UHF
(microwave) frequencies. We are hoping that it will be
cell-blocked
to become legal to use.

Here's another interesting one which apparently will be cell blocked:

Correction, I meant to say that IT WILL NOT BE CELL BLOCKED.

Great! Another receiver for the FCC and our City, State, Military to
use for their needs and for Clearchannel, NAB and FCC to hunt down
lots of unknown pirate stations, and Ipod transmitters and shut down
left and right. that we cannot get cause the publicly available cannot
receive too well and even you try to use a good antenna you still get
noise and intermod cause of the receiver design. I appreciate the ad
thanks. But I need something that will be cell blocked so can own
one when I get the money. Also are you planning on owning one?

When I get my engineering degree I may have to get a FCC RF Commerical
License to use the equipment, but we will not be listening to boring
cell phone conversations mostly for Shortwave Broadcast Professional
DXing also for antenna designing and testing and yes deep down pirate
hunting on 6955 and FM broadcast frequencies.


Professional DXing? I must admit I've made a buck or two 'DXing' from time
to time but I'm not certain if there are very many Professional DXing jobs
out there these days.


Sure would be nice though. If you guys hear of any openings, please let
me know!


Hey me too! I want to be paid for sometime I like to do.
