I love the R75 but my real love was an R8500, sadly it suffered some damage and while it was fixed, it was never really the same.

Welcome to the group Isaac,

I have an R71A, it was free....wish it was at least an R75 though...

For other SW, MW and LW I use a ATS 909, Tecsun PL380 with a modified AM antenna, and several palm sized for bare bones MW. I'm working on constructing a SDR w/ an upverter for MW, Rasbi-Pi w/1TB HD. For antennas I have a homemade tunable MW loop, a 2x Slinky for a long wire in the attic, also a Chinese amplified MLA-150. I have a Pa0rdt in the attic, but it deserves to be outside but...I'm in an HOA so no outside antennas. But I plan a bird condo to hide the Pa0rdt. Im working on it! (;-)

Hey.

Just heard about this group and wanted to check it out. Keen DX'er since my teenage years, missed the boat with a lot of shortwave stations going off the air before I was really active. Mostly spend my time listening to hams on 80m and 40m.

Ultralight radio sounds like fun, will be looking to grab one when I can. Using an Icom R75 at the moment, I don't think that counts as ultralight.
