While I own the RX-350 (as well as a Drake R8A), I would keep the R8B, Both
radios, however, are discontinued. -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html "Hans" wrote in message oups.com... Wich radio you kan better keep if you have to choose: te Drake R8B or the Ten Tec rx350. Please help! Thanks, Hans |

![]() Hans, If you decide to sell your Drake R-8B, let me know. I'm looking for an Drake VHF converter card also. Thank you.

Hans,
I love my TenTec RX-350 and I've had Drake R7A's and even the professional model Drake 4245 (which was a commercial version of the R-7A with a RV-75 Synthesized Tuning module built it). I've never used a Drake R-8B. However, the TenTec has been the very best shortwave radio that I've ever owned. As a bonus, you can easily hook the RX-350 up to your computer's soundcard for DRM reception (I love listening to Radio New Zealand in high fidelity sound). The RX-350 allows for super high-fidelity shortwave reception since you have an almost infintely adjustable bandwidth up to 12 kHz width and the stability of the receiver is such that you can push the SSB button and use ECSS to receive excellent fidelity shortwave without selective fade distortion. This is as good as sync-detection on a radio that's as stable as the TenTec. However the sync-detector on the TenTec stinks. I'd keep the RX-350. I love mine. F.E.
