I posted earlier after buying the Radio Shack 12-150 ... and I'll be
the first to admit that this radio was my first foray into DX ... but
I've been disappointed in the radio overall. It has a simplistic
attractiveness to it, and it has PLL, but the knobs are real cheap
plastic (and will probably have a short lifespan!) and the reception
hasn't been as great as I'd hoped for a radio that was boasted as being
"extreme range." The SW capabilities are very weak, but that might be
my inexperience.

Don't think the 12-150 covers shortwave. Probably accounts for it's
poor performance on those bands....!!


Wow, someone noticed.
