My very first ham radio receiver was a Heathkit AR-3, five tubes for $29.95. It was sort of a clock radio without the clock, and without a cabinet either since that was IIRC $5 extra. I think 40 mete

With lightning, you'll never create a true "no voltage" situation between any two points, but you can reduce the voltage differential to the point that it will prevent damage by using heavy, low-resi

I have never seen any difference in performance of the radio with the scope on or off, and like you, I don't find it all that useful. That may be because I have never had a radio with a band scope be

I just glanced over the new ARRL review of the IC-7800 to compare it to the Orion II. Although they have improved on the 5 kHz blocking numbers, the 'up-conversion' scheme results in very little impr

The Orion's are quite good since they have both a hardware and software noise blanker. Every kind of noise is different, but I have been very impressed with the abilities of the two separate systems.
