Overview

Radio hobbyists who want a pocketable receiver get AM, FM and shortwave tuning in a compact leather-wrapped body with an LCD. Single sideband mode and a numeric entry for meter bands round out the tuning.

The extra tuning modes are the reason to buy it for shortwave listening away from home. The limit is detail: sensitivity, speaker size and antenna details are not in the listing.

Who it's for

Shortwave and amateur radio listeners who want a small receiver to carry will use the tuning options. Casual listeners who only need local FM can use almost any radio instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Single sideband mode
  • Direct key-in for meter bands
  • AM, FM and shortwave coverage
  • Compact leather body
Cons
  • Battery powered only listed
  • Antenna details not given
  • Weight entry looks wrong

Performance notes

Single sideband demodulation lets the radio decode amateur and utility signals that ordinary AM tuning cannot. Fine tuning steps decide how cleanly a station locks in. Reception on shortwave depends heavily on antenna length, location and time of day.
