Subject: LF: Re: ICOM R-75
Alex,
Personally, I'd leave it alone, unless you were really
limited with your receiving antenna. I use a loop for LF receiving, and a 30
dB preamp. I leave the R-75 internal preamps off, as they pick up some
"birdies" within the receiver. The resulting signal levels appear to be more
than sufficient for serious LF work. This was the setup that I used last week
to copy G3AQC on 73 kHz.
The R75 is a very nice receiver for the price, and one of my
smarter buys.
