Mint radio with noise blanker/notch filter and 400 memory mods.

The highest bid is now well over $800 with a couple of hours to go.
While I'd love to have a 7030, I personally wouldn't spend close to a
grand on one that's already been in use for several years--and of
course, Ebay is a risky forum. I'd rather just take the plunge for a
new one.

Still, I hope it's a good unit and that the winning bidder sees many
years of good service from it.

Just as I suspected Steve. You're a good person

BTW, what gets me about the 7030 is it doesn't have sync unless you upgrade
to it if I'm not mistaken. And yeah, if you're going to drop over 8 bills
already, spring for a new one.

Hello "Lucky'"

The AOR AR7030 Plus does indeed have a synchronous circuit fitted as
standard. It is the notch filter/noise blanker that is optional. The
four standard filters offered are excellent and well-chosen.

Really the radio (Plus version) needs only one option: that NB7030
notch filter/noise blanker. The TW7030 whip antenna (just to get you
started; it actually works quite well) is nice to have also and is very
inexpensive. By the way, this whip antenna, which is sold by Universal,
also works with any receiver with a SO-239 input.

If you are in the least interested in the radio you can "research" it
he

http://www.aoruk.com/ar7030.htm

The site has everything you would need to know (including the
instruction manual).

Personally I think this radio is the finest short wave radio being
manufactured today. It is certainly the best one I have ever
experienced or owned. Larry Magne, in PASSPORT, says its owners
consider it to be the "ne plus ultra" of radios.

I positively agree with that statement.

Best,

Joe

I like my 7030+ but I'd have dumped it if I couldn't put in filters
better suited to my tastes. The stock ones are narrow enough to give
muddy sound or wide enough to let you hear hets from an adjacent channel.

Fortunately, it's easy to find and add filters, and if you choose ones
with steep skirts you can get beautiful audio without losing performance.

Also, the sync detector is included on all 7030's. Lucky was probably
confusing it with some Lowe receivers.

I have the older non-plus version of the 7030; it also has the sync detector
as standard. Overall, not a bad receiver. It has become my bedtime radio of
the week.
