Re: JRC Radio Sets Record on Ebay



Can I ask a dumb question? I'm looking over the specs and they don't seem
inordinately very good compared to other radios. What makes this radio so
worth the price?. The SSB sensitivity is not as good as the radio I have.
The selectivity seems to be better but with SW signals at least 5khz wide
that wont make much difference if your sensitivity is not low enough. Does
it have variable IF bandpass? Or variable audio filtering? Is it because of
the tuning steps? 1 hz steps seems to be overkill. I mean what kind of
reception warrants those kind of specs especially with mediocre sensitivity?
I'm listening....
