New source for shortwave for cars?
Dan Say wrote in message ... http://www.motobras.com.br/Automotivos_esp.htm shows the range of three models (one with cassette) of a Brazilian company with SW (OC in Spanish). They speak Brazilian Portuguese, naturellement, but I give you the Spanish link. There is no English page. Any knowledge of their effectiveness? For those who don't want to bother going to the page here is the nitty gritty: Model Tucano V (maybe VI, the webpage has a glitch showing the detailed specs for the V when you click the VI link...) AM 525-1630 FM 86.5-109 SW 4.65-5.15, 5.88-630 2 x 5 watts No mention of step size on any of the bands Has casette player Has CD-in Model Spix VI same freqs (FM is listed as 87.5-108) 2 x 25 watts No cassette player Has CD-in Model Spix V No SW I think you'd be better with a Grundig 4860/4870/4871/5500 from ebay. Or a Philips DC-777. |
