What Is The Best Receiver Made?
If money were no object what is the best general
coverage receiver that one could purchase? |
"Radio Man" trolled If money were no object what is the best general coverage receiver that one could purchase? When money is no object to you, go have one built. Pick a defense contractor and tell them what you want. Meanwhile, stop wasting folk's time in the hobby with idiotic questions. Jack |

Dear Mr. "Radio Man,"
I do not know if your question is serious (the other postings on this thread assume it is not). However, on the assumption that you do want a serious answer, I'll give you my opinion. For short wave listening and DXing, to my mind, the finest receiver available today is the AOR AR7030 Plus receiver. I researched radios for many years, acquiring a fair collection of SW receivers, some good, some not-so-good, but all serving some purpose. For example, I use a Sony ICF-SW7600G model for trips; I use the 'GR model at home for some casual listening outside; I have a Grundig Satellit 800 (which is attached to an AOR WL500 Window Loop Antenna and which performs admirably). If price WERE an object, this is the radio I should recommend without hesitation. However, for the purposes of argument, you state money is no object. Realistically, though, even if the most expensive GC receiver is the absolute "best," we live in a real world in which ease of operation, quality of sound (which plays an extremely important role in listening), and certain other parameters are important also. Thus, if one needs to purchase a "third-party" attachment to make a receiver work or sound "right," this is an example of poor design of the receiver proper. If nothing else, an additional component complicates the operating procedures and is, at the very least, highly inconvenient, at least to me. Having read about the AR7030 for many years in PASSPORT and, frankly, being "afraid" of it due to the negative comments about its operating procedures discussed in PASSPORT, I finally succumbed to the lure of the "numbers" published there (its specifications). I telephoned Richard Hillier in the UK and he assured me, quite correctly, that if one can operate a VCR (not even to mention a computer!), one can easily operate the AR7030. He is absolutely correct in his assessment. PASSPORT's panelists don't like the way one "works" the AR7030, but I feel that they are really incorrect in their judgments, one of their few reviews with which I disagree (normally they are "right on the money"). Also, this receiver can be almost totally computer-controlled with a FREE computer program called RxWings which is available from Mr. Jan Arkesteijn. This program allows the receiver to be worked virtually, just like a receiver with "dedicated" buttons (if one wishes for that) and supplies the receiver with facilities (such as automatic scanning) which are not present in the receiver proper. I suppose you could call this program a "third-party" add-on, but it is not, really; it becomes the total controller of the receiver, if one wishes, or one can ignore it and use the receiver itself, if required. The whole setup is quite amazing. It is something which has to be experienced and is also something about which I could not have even dreamed possible just ten years ago! Please buy the latest edition of PASSPORT TO WORLD BAND RADIO (available online from various sources such as Amazon, Universal Radio, or Grove Enterprises) for a very good picture of the available receivers. I have been buying the book since 1996 and, having studied the editions carefully, and speaking to people "in the know," I came to the conclusion that the AR7030 Plus (somewhat modified by the factory with recommendations by Richard Hillier for my requirements) would be the finest choice for me. In my particular instance, money WAS no object. (I also bought a Wellbrook ALA 330S Active Loop Antenna, based on PASSPORT's recommendation, which is the very best choice for my particular circumstance.) I would strongly recommend the AOR AR7030 Plus receiver. Others may, and probably will, disagree with me. Best, Joe "Radio Man" wrote in message news:ewPmd.5860$h15.2506@trnddc07...

Nice attitude! If you'd checked the archives you'd have found this gets
discussed about 80 times per year! There is NO best radio! One man wants one with all the bells and whistles and another wants a bare bones receiver that will fit in his match box. One wants one to sit on his kitchen table or mount in a rack that will pick up a gnats sneeze in China. Another wants a very portable radio that eats about 4 AA batteries every six weeks and all he plans to do is listen to 100,000 watt power houses that are 600 miles away! I repeat. There is NO BEST RADIO for everyone! I'm sure some of the answers were not what you expected. None of them were mine, until now. Some, I'm sure, were intended to be a bit sarcastic or funny for the simple reason that this has been discussed about 10,000 times and there has never, to my knowledge, been a final consensus. Some of the answers given may have been the best - for the guy who only has ten bucks and wants a shortwave radio. The best answer, in my opinion, was about the first one you got. "If money is no object" get a military contractor to design what you want! However, it may only be SECOND BEST. The BEST one may be about the second answer you got. Buy one of each! If money is no object them I'm sure space would not be either, as you could add a few rooms, or stories, onto you house - or warehouse - and make room for all the new toys. Finally, you must be fairly new or you'd have known something of the number of times this has been asked. As such, we don't want to come down too hard on you. Just stick around. Lean back. Grab another drink. And watch the fun. You'll find out that everyone was really pretty easy on you. Sometimes, when people ask for it, this group can get down right UGLY!

Dave,
You are correct, i should be more specific as to the "Best" gc receiver made. Unfortunately i cannot afford the best receiver but i was curious to know what is available. My criteria for best receiver would be a commercial grade receiver that was/is used by u.s. government agencies within the past ten years. Also ty to george craig for the site on premium receivers.

Hello Bill,
Do you own this computer receiver? If so, what do you think of its performance and "usability," particularly in comparison with the Grundig Satellit 800, the Drake R8B, and the AOR AR7030 Plus (the radio I use computer-controlled) if you have experience with any or all of those receivers. I am really curious about this radio. (I wonder if they will make an external version.) If you do own one, what antenna are you using? I was disappointed that there is no review in the 2005 PASSPORT. I hope they will test it soon and post their findings on their web site. Thanks. Joe Bill Everhart wrote in message . ..

Question: if you want to operate a receiver from your PC, why not look at the receivers made specifically for PC operation? I would think that they would have better shielding. For the record: Passport recommends the Drake R8B, although in its 2005 edition the AOR is rated a close second. I use a Yaesu FRG-8800, which has 20 year old technology but performs admirably for my uses (Passport offers a White Paper on the 8800, which means that they consider it to be one of the best solid state receivers of all time). If you're in the US, it may be hard to get your hands on an AOR, as Passport says they're no longer sold in the US. You may be able to get a used one, or buy the Drake if it's essential that you have a brand spanking new right out of the box receiver. Passport is available direct from the publisher at www.passband.com. Best, Joe "Radio Man" wrote in message news:ewPmd.5860$h15.2506@trnddc07...

Really. Perhaps he should make himself a crystal radio. It would use no
