What is BEST all-tube, general coverage receiver under $1000? Under $2000?
"C. J. Clegg" wrote in message
news Looking for the best all-tube general-coverage (0.5-30) receiver I can get. Need good operation on SSB and CW and capability on AM, along with sensitivity, stability, ruggedness, and availability of replacement parts e.g. tubes (that last one might be difficult...). I'm thinking Collins 51Jx or R-390, although I remember that I really liked an old Hammarlund I had once... Would like to stay under $1000 but if I had to I suppose I could go as high as $2000 for something that's really mint. What do you guys recommend I look for? Have a look on ebay for a RACAL RA17 , they tend to go cheaply as there are so many about. No problem with replacement valves. Steve H G0LMV |
