First Portable
Hi,
I'm looking to buy my first portable to jump in and get my feet wet. On top of world band I'd like to try to search out some pirate/clandestine stations. I am thinking of the Sony ICF-SW7600GR. I realize this isn't high-end, but I don't know enough yet to spend more. I'd like a Drake R8B, but it ain't in the cards yet... I guess I'm wondering how effective this radio will be for listening to pirates. I live in NYC on the top floor of a five story building and would be able to rig some sort of antenna on the roof. Or maybe get the Sony AN-LP1... Would this be a good starter radio? Any suggestions for an antenna? Any other recommendations for the uninitiated? Thanks! Jon |
