Default Suitability of an IC-751 for short wave listening


Hi all

I would be interested to hear comments on the suitability or otherwise of
using an Icom IC-751 for short wave listening. I have this set and it has
good coverage. My only concern is that the audio seems a bit limited in
frequency range (ie not much in the way of high frequencies). Many years ago
I used to own a Realistic Dx-302 which had very good audio characteristics -
it was a pleasant receiver to listen to a short wave station on.

Are ham rigs like the IC-751 any good for short wave listening?

cheers peter
