  • Summary of purchase

    Compared to other receivers in this class, it has very good sensitivity and selectivity. The unique tuning system takes a bit of getting used to, but all in all works well. The 500Khz calibrator is a plus to find band edges. Band 5 (13-30mhz) was pretty much dead and I had to re-align that band only. Since this receiver was purchased with the line cord cut off, I was pleasantly surprised upon replacement, everything functioned as it should with the exception of the 13-30 mhz band. Another great purchase!

  • OK, but not what I expected.

    It is in very good cosmetic condition, but the control pots and switches are very scratchy and are in need of servicing with deoxy or something that cleans and lubricates. I couldn't hear any radio station sounds on any of the different bands. Itt may require an antenna to receive the stations, so I need to hook up an antenna for further testing. I am somewhat disappointed in that. Other wise, I like the looks and appearance of it.
