TenTec BFO Kit?
Greetings! TenTec has a BFO kit that they sell for about $11-$12. Has
anyone used one before? I have a Rat Shack DX-396 that I picked up new on clearance about a year and a half ago for $27 and I really enjoy the radio for taking with me in the truck or using with headphones. It tunes through the SW bands from 2300 to about 21885kh continuous. It tunes in 5 khz increments. Will that BFO tune far enough to get the freqs in between the 5 khz steps? Just curious. This thing can be added inside the case if there is room, or attached to the radio on the outside, or just put in its own case and just placed close to the radio. I just thought this might work out nice instead of buying another portable when I would be satisfied with this if it could tune on 75, 40, and twenty. Thanks for your input! Have a great weekend!

Don't waste your money on it. I did the same thing for the very same
radio. It's very unstable with low output on the fundamental freq. and loaded with harmonics that you don't want. I went and got a Kaito KA1102 and have been very satisfied. Frank K3YAZ Tucson |
