Return to VK3YE equipment and equipment reviews

Reviews of broadcast and shortwave receivers Most of these are old models. But if you're a radio collector or restorer you might still find these reviews useful. However the AR1780 reviewed here is current. That I do recommend if you're looking for a compact radio with good SSB reception.   My first shortwave receiver   National Panasonic GX3   Optimus Extended Range   Sony SRF-59   Digitech AR1748   Digitech AR1780   Digitech AR1458   Realistic DX-392 (same as Sangean ATS818CS)   Learn more about broadcast and shortwave listening here       Disclosure: I receive a small commission from items purchased through links on this site. Items were chosen for likely usefulness and a satisfaction rating of 4/5 or better.
