Subject: How is the Ten-Tec RX-350?
From: Jim Williams Date: 4/20/2004 10:03 AM Central Daylight Time Message-id: I think it's in $1,000 range - I saw it on the Ten-Tec site. Is this a good receiver? What other receivers would it compare to? Is it better than the ICOM R-75? Thanks, Jim Well, I have had mine since the first of the year, and it is the finest receiver I have ever owned. Should you think I don't know what I am talking about, here is some background: I have owned 33 R-390A's, 20 SP-600's, 1 R-390 and 87 other miscellaneous receivers, both tube and solid state, all the Drake R8 series, the NRD series etc. The choice of 34 bandwidths, the passband offset range, and all the other features make it a real pleasure to listen to news, music and utilities. I got the remote control with it and it's great to be able to sit back in the easy chair and punch in frequencies and use the tuning knob. One last thing, I too owned a Kiwa modified R-75 including the 3.8 filter before Kiwa couldn't get them anymore. It was a good receiver, but not as good as my old R8B and this RX-350D aces them all imho. Les Locklear On The Gulf of Mexico Ten Tec RX-350D Various antennas Monitoring since ' 57 |
