DX-120
Ala Cuhulin, I picked up a Realistic DX-120 at a yard sale today for $5.00.
Anyone got any experience with these, or can point me at some related links? |

You've been cleaning up lately at those things. First that scanner and now this. Only if you were lucky was yours as clean as this one: http://www.signalharbor.com/dx120.html Those are old. How does it work? |

Not quite that clean. The only testing I've done so far it so plug it in to
make sure it lights up; I'll hook up a speaker & antenna to it this weekend & give it a run. Probably end up selling it on ebay, as I can't stand receivers with bandpass tuning!

Maybe I'm confusing you with someone else, but didn't you pick up a DX150 not too long ago? Use it for a day and become frustrated because it used bandspread tuning? |

Actually, it was a DX-160, and yes, I wound up selling it to Universal Radio
because I can't stand bandpass tuning, so I plan on selling this too after I check it to make sure it actually receives . . . "John S." wrote in message ups.com...

IMHO it's illogical.

Neither of which are illogical or frustrating! So I'm really curious to hear Lisa Simpson's explanation. Mike |

Of course, very few receivers of 30 years ago and before had bandpass tuning either. Michael |
