Nice for a first impression. Meaningful points.

I'll be interested in your review when you've had more time to
spend with it.

Palstar R30x are very good.I own one with 2 Collins filters (R30CC).
Audio is above average.Front end is very decent. Big appetite (power)
for a small size. One of very few companies ( less than a dozen in
this business) still left over here.

I picked up a used SE-3 Sherwood for my 340. i hooked it up to my
30CC, and it's still there. the Sherwood made a fun, simple receiver,
a lot more fun to play with. the Palstar is a super receiver for the
price. had mine about 6 or 7 years now. never missed a beat. and
Paul is a super guy.

I should mention, the Palstar is sold in Europe under the Lowe 350
badge. just an FYI, if you didn't know.

At least the Lowe has computer control.

Indeed it does, though I think this involves. It's something I
overlook because I am not interested in using a computer to control a
radio I will mainly use while camping. For someone who is interested
in using a computer to control their receiver, it's definitely a point
in favor of the Lowe.
