Is a ICOM 751A decent receiver
While my primary radio hobby is SWL, I
hold a Extra class ham license. I have debating with myself about buying a HF rig and this one is within my price range. Any comments on how usefull the receiver is? Terry |
I have an R71A, and I feel the two are very similar in design.
The R71A is great receiver; however my little Icom IC-703 (approx $300 used) which is very portable has fantastic sensitivity, built-in antenna tuner, draws half-amp on receive. eham.net has more reviews of the 751A. I really feel the general coverage receiver in a ham band transceiver is more value for price paid than a standalone receiver. Gary K4GPB |
