Serious Grundig FR200 Problem
Saturday, sunshine finally returned to SE Texas, so I thought I'd eat lunch, a
couple of mini pizzas and beer, while sitting on my porch and surfing SW on the FR200 I'd recently bought "just because." The upper band seemed open because, among other things, I heard 20 MHz WWV for the first time in a long time. But I heard it in more than one place. Checking further, I heard all the other readable stations in two places, 910 kHz apart. (Before that, I thought the multiple broadcasts were simulcasts on different frequencies.) So the high end wasn't that hot. Oh, and I heard 15 and 10 MHz WWV stations in two places, too. But a bad image problem in inexpensive radios is something I thought went away with modern circuitry. It has excessive backlash in the tuning, too. I am really disappointed in the receiver. I'd like to see a jWIN with the FR200's features. The upside is that I could pick the signal that wasn't being interfered with. G Bill, K5BY |
