shortwave receiver wanted
Hi
I live in the UK and I am just starting out in this hobby and only have a small cheap sw-radio. I am getting very interested in this but would like to be able to listen to SSB transmissions. Does anybody have a portable radio (not too expensive please) that they would be willing to sell to me, (something along the lines of a YB400 or similar) I looked on UK eBay but nothing available thank you Roger please reply to -- .. Remove 8 to reply .. |

YB400 in UK http://www.ogormans.co.uk/grundig.htm Other UK retailers have them too, and whatever the Sangean ATS-505 equivalent is for a Roberts brand... it has SSB also. |

The Roberts Shortwave radios are rebranded Sangeans. But these Roberts FM/MW/LW models do look very cool... http://www.ogormans.co.uk/roberts.htm Lots of longwave stations in Europe I understand. |
