Been using a Radio Shack 394 & Grundig 800. Am getting back into better
listening & wonder which of the two would be recommended, the Palstar 30CC
or the Icom R-75.


In the case that you haven't already seen this review of the Palstar:

I need to jump in here with a sincere apology for some really dumb
statements I made yesterday about Joe Analssandrini's well thought out
summaries of three receivers. My comments were uncalled for and came
at the end of a long day.

Sorry guys...

Palstar R30 is a high performance radio. What it doesn't have a
gimmicks,huge and mostly empty cabinet,synchronous detector,keypad and
older siblings. Independent reviews estimated its
3rd order intercept at 15 to 18 dBm. That is even higher than JRC 535D ,
Drake R-8(x) and the most expensive Icoms . My R30CC contains 2
Collins torsional filters. Selectivity is incredibly good, on equal
terms with Harris RF550,Drake R7, Racal 6790...and even the holy
Collins R390(non A) !

Thanks for the reply, will be ordering the R30CC direct from Palstar.
