Andy -- any of the big gun receivers, from the 515 all the
way up, and the 71A, will hear just about anything that is
still on the air these days....I have a 525, 71A and 515
along with some others. With a decent antenna, you should
have no problem..

Subject: JRC NRD-535 - How good is this receiver?

Hi Ken

I see that you have both a NRD535D and an Icom R71a. I also have an
R71a and have been tempted by a few NRD535's on eBay lately.

How does the performance of the 535D compare with that of the R71 for
SW broadcast DXing?

Thanks for any opinions

Andy
