I constantly see everyone wanting the "newest" radio, but does anyone use
old, retro equipment in their shack?
I am using nothing but, and the interest has come back to my listening
pleasure. I am using my old Layfayette HE-10, S-38 and the old trusty
RF-2200. It is amazing, I have already gotten 15 states with the
HE-10/S-38 combo, and am finding more shortwave with the Panasonic.
Hallicrafters S-53A,
National NC-88,
Hammarlund BC-794 SuperPro,'
Zenith T/O 3000-1,
Zenith T/O R7000,
Zenith T/O Y600,
Masterwork 2896,
Grundig 960 (the real one),
Grundig 650 Professional.
As a start.
I don't think I'd call a 650 "retro"! I have one - its too modern to be
"retro" in my mind.
I also have a 700, and a 2100. The 2100 qualifies as retro - big analog
dials! Also a Panasonic 2200 & 1150B.
I also have some *real* retro's - a 1936 Zenith, a 1937 Philco, a 1938
Philco and a 1936 Scott.
