Dear all.

There's been some discussion about filters etc recently which reminded me of
a question I wanted to ask the group...
What receivers/tranceivers work well on LF?
and possibly..
What receivers or tranceivers don't work very well?

All I need is something like this:

IC735; rather deaf, needs external preamp/filter.
TS850; excellent, especially with two CW filters.
DX70; sensitive (without preamp) but filter too wide.
IC something-or-other that I saw at Windsor last year; useless, huge birdie
in the middle of the band!

Then I can assemble a little database of what works and what doesn't.

Thanks, Dave Pick. G3YXM.


Hi Dave,

To add on your list :

Kenwood TS440 with 500Hz CW filter :
very sensitive, but s-meter is rather 'lazy' (but who cares about that)
if used with a big antenna, the internal 20dB attenuator improves IM-behavior
I heard so far about 65 stations in 14 countries with it
