Or a Hallicrafters SX-101? also very handsome and a good performer Or if you want something that isn't 19" wide and 75 lbs, but is about the same width as the Ranger, a Drake 2B. OK, that didn't make your choices easier, did it? But I think these three are much better rcvrs than your list below. I like the HQ-170 for SSB but never enjoyed it for AM. I couldn't make up my mind either - here's what I ended up with for my main vintage operating position - http://www.virhistory.com/ham/photos/shack3.jpg cheers, Nick K4NYW ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: "Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 23, 2009 6:01 PM Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Getting started > > Okay maybe I should have been a little more specific up to 300/350 > dollars for a receiver that would be my range I guess.
