$400 to spend. What receiver should I buy?
Ok I need a new receiver. Just sold my Grundig 800 which was ok but
want something different. I have about $400 what should I look for? Ed |
www.universal-radio.com has a nice Ten-Tec radio for $328.95.And you
would have some money left over which you could send to me. cuhulin |
When I clicked on your post I was going to suggest the "800" Grundig.
You had one, and got rid of it. Now, all I can think of is to buy it back. Darren http://community-2.webtv.net/DEMEM/L...mes/page2.html |

Ed I picked up my Icom R75 at HRO for just over what you are looking to pay, I think $425, and I've been very pleased with it. They run sales and offer discounts every so often on it, you'll have to check with them. Aside from that, you may want to look around on ebay for used Drake models; this is the only one I see there presently: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...em=5735062 36 4&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW, but they come and go pretty regularly. Good luck. -Brian |

You have to write them and ask. I paidd $425 for mine after rebate and deal. I think they can be had for $410 now after rebates and deal. If also comes with free DSP. Try finding that on a brand new top notch reciever for $400.... Lucky |
The ICOM IC-703 Amateur Radio Transceiver.
The receiver is much better that shortwave radios in this price range and it uses about 400ma in receive mode. Ham Radio Outlet has them on sale for $379.

You can get a 1980s vintage tabletop with digital readout and all the other goodies for a decent price. There's a site where hams buy and sell equipment, I think it's qrz.com or qsz.com or something like that, you'll probably get a much better deal on there than you will on ebay. You could probably get a Yaesu or a Kenwood for under $400, since those companies no longer make tabletop SW receivers their products have sort of an orphan status, which means their prices are lower. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |
