Welcome to the group. Where are you from? As Gary posted, that article provides a good reference of what ultralight radios are about on the market. I used to own an R75, good solid radios.

Next to my soccer field, some moron has occasionally been letting off homemade fireworks at night for over 15 years and has never been caught. I know that I would love to catch whoever it is because,

Hi Issac, Welcome to our Ultralight Radio group! It's true that your Icon R75 doesn't quite qualify as an Ultralight, but you can get very detailed information about which portables are currently at

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

Hi Remy, So true! The latest acquisition! Johnny

If someone asks, I just tell them. Not sure why it seems to be such a big deal to some folks. j

Hi, I guess one's "absolute go-to" is always one's latest acquisition. In my case it is the Tecsun PL-330, but I also use my XHDATA D-808, which was my previous "absolute

Yeah, in the early to mid 2000's, we had a few issues here. Of late, I have seen it a bit more.

That last line says it all. Unfortunately i dont live ona rural area, but sad part is people seem to be afraid to talk with others. They are terribly focused and closed on themselves. It would be

Hi all, I think here in semi-rural Michigan (USA), no one would even ask... Most places that have population, have a very low population of rural folk, that probably just wouldn't care... I'd be

Hi Bill, I'd be very interested in that US/Canada list if you would not mind producing it! That would be SUPER helpful! Last night I logged my first two 50kw stations, but one is very close to my

Great idea, Paul. For those of us in the U.S., it would be fun to try to log ours too. There are quite a few. I could produce a day/night list if anyone is interested. Canadians included too. Bill

I have just published my review of this radio, for less than the cost of a sit down lunch, you can have a capable AM/FM radio.

I actually don't care about it. I just hold my radios wear headphones and if i catch something interesting point the camera at it. or record it. If not breaking any law, i dont bother to explain it to
