![]() "j.d." wrote in message ... Anyone have an opinion on the "Super" 909 located at http://www.radiolabs.com/products/re...s/super909.php ? I am considering taking up shortwave radio. I have a while before I'll have the money, I am just looking for information. Thanks- It is overpriced. You can do much better for your money. Sony 7600gr: about $ 140.00 (IMO the best portable on the market and it has a ssb selectable am sync. Good sensitivity, it is selective and has reasonable audio. It is also very good for medium wave DX'ing. Great for resolving weak signals) Grundig YB-400: about $130.00 (Very good portable with amazing audio quality. Also sensitive and selective.) Tecsun PL-550: about $50.00 (Amazing value for dollar. Sensitive, great audio, has lots of great features and has a push button tuner as well as a knob.) Degen 1103: about $50.00 (reported to be very sensitive and selective. also has a tuning knob. I have never used one, but I'm told it is a great little radio) For the money I'd say get one of the radio's above rather then the Super-909. Especially the 7600gr. Even though it is less expensive, IMHO it is a better radio for swl. If you want to spend over $ 320.00 at least walk away with a Sat-800 or an R-75. Michael |
