I am considering getting an Icom PCR-1500 receiver. For those of you who own and use it, some questions:
How is the shortwave reception compared to a dedicated tabletop receiver like the Icom R-75 or the Grundig Satellit 800? Better, worse, more or less noise, etc?
What kind of antenna do you use with such a wide band receiver? I was planning on using my existing Par EF-SWL shortwave antenna with it.
Is the optional UT-106 plug-in filter worth the extra money for what it does?
Any and all opinions welcomed!
