Just picked up this great radio. Initial reactions are that this is a freaking huge radio and I like that!
It is picking up the typical SW radio stations as expected in my noise drenched office on par with my other receivers. Looks like it was an early one may of 2000 if what it looks like from the serial number. I want to get a wellbrook at some point and really see how it performs but so far so good.
I picked up DIA (Denver International) aircraft traffic on the air band very clearly so that was a lot of fun too!
I would like to take it too a tech to go through it and do a general service but it seems most of those are non existent these days.
I have some Tecsun Radios that are fabulous on Shortwave but this is just a fun radio regardless so far and seems to be holding its own pretty well. Feel free to share your experiences!
