Keepers: Shortwave Radios That Last

For example, I wonder how you could make a critical post that had any merit on , say, the 272 posts on IBOC of Mar 2 2006 without carefully reading the whole thread. You'll have to interpret that for me. I don't remember commenting on that thread. In any case what you and I disagree on (respectfully on my part) is whether all of those radios are 'keepers'. I believe that any modern shortwave receiver, even including small portables, must have a minimum set of tools for the user. The Sony 7600 meets those requirements and for a good price and I agree with your assessment that it's the best all around. Still, however, I find the S350 to be a poor rendition of a modern shortwave portable and I don't think I have held a cheaper feeling radio. It's true tha I don't have many portables, as I favor the desktop sets, but the two I have owned: SW8 and ICF-SW55 were solidly built and excellent performers. -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html |
