Equipment / Re: Suggestions for Equipment
« on: October 14, 2013, 0209 UTC »
Ultimately though, as good as some portables may be, and they have their place, you'll still be better off in the long term with a decent base station radio. A used one in nice shape isn't all that much more than a portable. Even something like a Kenwood R600 (see pic) can be had off of eBay or from the ham classifieds for less than the cost of a good new portable.

I have a Tecsun 660 portable and I really like it a lot. Works great on SW, has a BFO. I pick up loads of pirates in the yard with it! FM sounds great too! (In stereo w headphones). AM MW broadcast band is OK though. Has 118-137 MHz aircraft band also. Digital tuning. Comes with everything you need... Rechargeable batteries, nice carrying pouch, 20' clippable longwire antenna on a spool, earbuds, wall charger. Got mine from eBay, from the Kaito distributor. I've had it for a year and it still works great, no problems.
