Telamon might be close enough to that box canyon he can drive over there
in a couple of hours and check that Drake out.

Hello

I have a Drake r8b and I would not mind to sell it. Why?
Listening strong and medium stations its great and listening to the music it is wonderful. But the problem starts when listening weak signal, I cannot understand a single word because the audio it is too bassy and words sound almost distorted. So, I cannot do DX.

I have tried with different headphones and the tone control fully clockwise with no results. Maybe I would need a speaker that can put out the highs, a Kenwood sp-31 or similar.
I have read that audio filter could solve the problem, Datong FL3 or a timewave device could help.

Yes, I sent it to Drake R.L. in orderto have it aligned, checked sensitivity and voltage levels........... and it works perfectly.

I will wait until next year since AOR it is going to release its AR7070 DSP.

Thank you very much, any comments are very wellcomed.

Either the radio has a problem or you are doing something wrong with the radio.
