[I paid about $10 for it, then.] Bandwidth is wide as a barn. Sensitivity is very good, but on crowded bands it becomes very difficult to separate signals out. Really spectacular audio quality with AM signals, though. The ARC-5 stuff is also kind of weird.... they are becoming valuable collectors items these days. Used to be you couldn't give those modules away at hamfests. I wouldn't consider an ARC-5 receiver rack to really be comparable to a communications receiver, though. But the RF performance isn't all that bad. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
