Mostly listen to Utility stations therefore which would be the best to install: the ECSS board or the BWC unit (continuous bandwidth control)? LARRY |

LARRY From what I recall, there were several production changes. It is important to establish which version is in your hands first (serial number) . Did you look inside the receiver to know for sure which modules are installed ? |

Did you look inside the receiver to know for sure which modules are installed ? True - but if you like utes, ECSS is probably not terribly important (that's like S-AM). The bandwidth control would probably be a better choice. |

The ECSS unit is a particularly poor one. I makes a loud howl when it loses sync, which it does often. Thinking of the NRD series I see that Universal has a 515 up for sale: http://www.universal-radio.com/used/used2.html dxAce Michigan USA |

Thinking of the NRD series I see that Universal has a 515 up for sale: http://www.universal-radio.com/used/used2.html dxAce Michigan USA Man, that's tempting. Pricey. But, I do recall buying a minty 515, with the memory unit, and I think a matching speaker for around $850 or so back in the early 90's or so, via the Ham Trader Yellow Sheets. I almost recall it coming with something else, perhaps some add on box that added sync or something, it might have been some kinda Kiwa box. The add on box was black, and had a few knobs on it. Maybe it was a Sherwood thing. At any rate, I considered it a steal at the time, but, I never cared for NRD audio, though they were certainly pretty. Sold it all at a nice profit. dxAce Michigan USA |

That one in particular was fanastic on SSB and RTTY modes. -- BDK- Top of the government shill heap for over 10 years running! |
