My thanks to all for your comments. The HF transceiver path looked
better and better (not so much for AM Rx as DX seeking). In the
pursuit of this, a notice passed my way of someone selling a NRD-525
in excellent condition. Discussed this with the seller (an active
comm's hobbiest) and this led to my purchase of the unit. Look
forward to this long overdue, major upgrade.


Good choice. And I'm sure you'll find it a significant upgrade from
your Panasonic RF-3100. If you're looking to chase the weak DX, then a
JRC receiver is hard to beat.
