FA: Realistic DX-150A - Collector quality
The DX-150 and 150A have a speaker built in. The external speaker wasn't
needed until the DX-150B and DX-160. I really wonder why they did that, except maybe to lower the cost of the radio and drive the inevitable purchase of the add-on SP-150.

Jeff They are a fun to use radio if you enjoy bandspread tuning. There are more similarities than differences between the 150, 150A, 150B and 160. However, in reference to the auction comments I would say the 150b had a slight edge because of the relatively improved selectivity from a mechanical filter and the 160 because of extended coverage. Best of luck with the auction. |

If I had a choice, I'd pick the any of the 150-series units over the 160. The sound quality of the 160s are just awful-The filter is just too aggressive, with no way to switch it out for casual listening. -Scott |

Makes all the difference. |

If by "expanded coverage" you mean the addition of the LW band on the 160,
that is seen by some as a negative. The fifth band added to the same-size window makes it slightly more crowded and hard to read, and there's nothing to listen to on LW anymore. Wasted space.
