I was playing my sony ICF-SW7600GR in my bed room and had a nice
signal on 5070 and decided to take it into the kitchen while I was preparing mid-rats. I decided to give the Kaito KA2100 on top of the refer a workout and nothin doin - it was total noise. I turned the RF gain all the way down and still noise. Now I am temporary living in an apartment with lots of noise sources around but I thought this fact may be of interest to you all. It doesn't seem the Kaito and maybe Red Sun and maybe C Crane have enough noise sheilding inside. I would like to hear others' comments on this. If you have the means to test out then please let group know. This is not to say that one is better than the other in all ways, but for apartment dwellers with large noise environment you may want to consider the Sony over the Red Sun, or at least consider sticking in some sheilding. 73 NEO |

If I understand the scenario correctly once upon a time you listened to 5070 on the Sony while in the bedroom of a house somewhere. You then went to the kitehcn and tried to get 5070 from a KA2100 radio that was on top of the refrigerator. I don't see how you could compare reception results because the locations are completely different. You then moved a small apartment that has even more electronic noise sources. Have you tried the radios there? I'm kinda confused here, so help me. For whatever it is worth my 1103 radio has excellent reception in a house full of potential noise makers including CFL bulbs in most light sockets. But then my old 7600 did a creditable job in the same electrically noisy environment.

Given the number of mis-spelled words, run-on sentences, incorrectly capitalized words I am going to guess that your education was cut short at a very young age. You may want to consider remedial english at night in one of your local public schools.

However, the SONY is a "HIGH END" "COMMUNICATIONS" "RECEIVER." Just because one radio costs twice as much as the other does not mean the more expensive radio will perform any better.
