Even clearchannel and big corporate NAB
communications companies that don't encourage pirate radio/ part 15
broadcasting shuts them down too with these receivers and periodic-log
antennas.


I do not recall seeing a communications receiver in a radio station for
decades. If we have a local pirate, we use a field strength meter or just a
car radio to track it. Then we call the FCC to act.

The FCC does not encourage DXing only local radio listening
and HDTV and IBOC.


The FCC has encouraged localism in radio for nearly 60 years. This is why
there is no high power AM or FM in the US.

I hate to say but digital is living like a virus, if you don't like it
you need to complain
to the companies such as Biequity and NAB.


NAB is not a company. It is a trade association. It's biggest group of
members is the single owner smaller market station.

Oh, No! Not another Republican Gov't Receiver! Where are the
real shortwave receivers that the public can use like the DRM/AM
type?? The FCC will NOT approve this for the the general public
(us SWL's) to use it will not be approved but only for the rest
of the world and maybe other governments might not approve it
ethier even the UK. If it was a portable no problem. or
something smaller that does not cover VHF/UHF (microwave)
frequencies. We are hoping that it will be cell-blocked to
become legal to use.


I don't know what you are talking about. The ICOM people are all
Democrats.

Telemon, Do you work for the FCC or the government.


Like many people I work for a defense contractor.

The messege is clear this receiver is not for the "general" public to
use only government use only or for export. If that was ok, they
would allowed the R 9000 to be owned by many hobbyists and obtain
more QSLs and get the rarest DX catches.


I expect that the receiver does not block the cell phone frequencies and
the government is serious about privacy. The receiver would have to
block the cell frequencies, pass UL safety, and home EMI/RFI FCC
standards. ICOM just has to spend the money to pass the standards that
any home electronics device needs to pass to be sold to the general
public. This is an ICOM decision not the government.

You can buy receivers the government uses right now like the Ten-Tec
RX340.

The FCC is republican cause of their very very high strict ordinances
we have to follow and also knocking down good SW pirate stations left
and right and top and bottom, main reason why there is no fun to
listen to SW pirate radio activity on 6955 kHz and 6950 kHz except
6.220 but thats from Europe not the US but is not on all the time to
log down. The FCC and other parts of the government uses these
receivers to track pirates and part 15 radio stations down and issue
them the most biggest fines that we cannot shell out not even to pay
our bills.. Even clearchannel and big corporate NAB communications
companies that don't encourage pirate radio/ part 15 broadcasting
shuts them down too with these receivers and periodic-log antennas.


The FCC is lobbied by the commercial radio industry. Maybe we should
form a SWL group and hire a lobbyist to represent us. Are you will to
shell out the bucks for this to get low power community radio?

I can tell you I am for regulation as anarchy on the bands is good for
no one.

The FCC does not encourage DXing only local radio listening and HDTV
and IBOC. Sorry! Thats good that ICOM are Democrats, but the
problem they are making receivers for the Republican Government
instead they should make receivers like the SW 8 and other small
receivers for the hobbyist public to use and have fun listening like
the Grundig Sat 800.


I was joking about ICOM people being Democrats. I expect that most of
the employees are in Japan and that the radios are assembled there but
that is just a guess as their contact list does not specify which
locations are manufacturing and which are sales. ICOM has sales offices
in the USA and other countries.

I hate to say but digital is living like a virus, if you don't like
it you need to complain to the companies such as Biequity and NAB.
You're not the only one that does not like DRM I like it just analog.


Digitization is an applied paradigm of today's science where everything
is looked at in quantitative way. Engineering is applied science and
when an analog widget is redesigned with digital technology it can be
improved in some way but sometimes it is no better. It depends on the
engineering for the redesign to be an actual improvement.

I don't want to augue, I just wanted to let you know that its just a
future equipment plan for big companies. Getting a wideband receiver
is going to be hard than it was before.


Snip

I don't know where you are located but I am not aware of any new
restrictions on wide band receivers other than the afore mentioned
cellular bands. Other countries have additional restrictions on
frequencies that you can listen to in the USA.

Here's another interesting one which apparently will be cell blocked:

Correction, I meant to say that IT WILL NOT BE CELL BLOCKED.

Great! Another receiver for the FCC and our City, State, Military to use for their needs and for Clearchannel, NAB and FCC to hunt down lots of unknown pirate stations, and Ipod transmitters and shut down left and right. that we cannot get cause the publicly available cannot receive too well and even you try to use a good antenna you still get noise and intermod cause of the receiver design. I appreciate the ad thanks. But I need something that will be cell blocked so can own one when I get the money. Also are you planning on owning one?


When I get my engineering degree I may have to get a FCC RF Commerical
License to use the equipment, but we will not be listening to boring
cell phone conversations mostly for Shortwave Broadcast Professional
DXing also for antenna designing and testing and yes deep down pirate
hunting on 6955 and FM broadcast frequencies.


Professional DXing? I must admit I've made a buck or two 'DXing' from time to time but I'm not certain if there are very many Professional DXing jobs out there these days.

Sure would be nice though. If you guys hear of any openings, please let

I had an FCC guy stop up here in the mid 80's working on a powerline
interference complaint driving a station wagon with some antenna stuff hidden in
a specially designed stealth cover on the top. Had a bunch of receiving
equipment installed on the passenger side. The HF receiver, believe it or not,
was an FRG-7700.
