Looking for GOOD general coverage receiver with DSP IF
Trying to participate in the Maritime Mobile Service Net on 14.300 this weekend with that contest on has convinced me I need a better receiver. Any suggestions for a good general-coverage receiver with a good IF DSP? I like the transceivers I have (FT-1000 and TS-940S) and don't want to get rid of them or trade them in for one of the new megabuck rigs but I do need a better receiver for times like this weekend. Any suggestions would be most appreciated... |

If it does half of what the marketing types at UR claim it does, it sounds like a pretty good unit. Kind of pricey, though. But I guess all of the good stuff is pricey, these days. |

Outstanding SWL rcvr, a 10 out of 10. As a ham rcvr it's a 9 out of 10. Does it live up to all that hype on the Universal Radio sales page? On one hand in general yes, on the other hand no radio lives up to it's manufacturer's marketing hype. There's a detailed by the-the- numbers review of it in the ARRL website. If it does half of what the marketing types at UR claim it does, it sounds like a pretty good unit. Kind of pricey, though. But I guess all of the good stuff is pricey, these days. Yup. Brian w3rv |
