Mine was when I was about 12 and my parents always purchased the Daily Telegraph newspaper here in the UK. One week there was an advertisement for the Russian Vega VEF-206 advertised by a company

Two defining moments for me.... 1) The GE handheld radio (looking at it right now) that my aunt bought me for Christmas - I couldn't believe how cool it was having my own radio! 2) The one night in

Hi Peter, I couldn't agree more, the feeling of a "proper radio" is hard to beat! I'm finally to the point in my life were I could actually buy those "expensive radios" that I dreamt of as a teen, but

I know the list in the US is HUGE!!! :)

Hi Bill, SUPER! I'm printing this off now. Thanks a lot for your effort! Johnny

Awesome work, a much longer list than I have here for us in Australia. Paul

That sounds like a really good plan. My collection got a bit out of hand, so I have scaled it back a bit. Paul

Sold mine to a radio friend locally, last I heard it was still working. At the time I didn't have the time or space to make the best use of it. Paul -- Paul

My go to radio is the XHDATA D-808. I did try the Tecsun 330, but found the MW performance to be poor so sold it on. I do have a newly acquired SDRplay RSPdx which I'm planning on using for overnight

I only have one: 310et. Little pocket rocket. but ive been kee to get a 330 // pedro andrade

Welcome, Isaac. There's a list of the best according to Group's Master Sensei. But if you have any questions and or doubts about a certain equipment, feel free to ask. Have a great 2022. // pedro

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. Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Did you sell your R75 or did it fail? Mine is starting to show some issues, at times it won't turn on or fails to receive anything. I think I have got a good run out of it but maybe it is time for it

Thank you, the PL330 sounds like it might be a winner. I hope to build my collection as I get more involved in the hobby but for the moment I am starting out basic and will expand on that. Sent with

My latest updated listed for 2022. Paul

Sorry I missed your reply, I was on the road. Yea, it’s fun to play with radio. Richard Feynman started his Nobel winning physics career as a kid fixing neighbors’ tube radios in New York City.

Much the same issue here, 000 services all going encrypted and a lot of business users too, large part of the reason I got out of the scanning hobby. Paul

Never had a problem but managed to stir up conversations. Never had a problem listening to police and fire in my area as well with a handheld scanner - in front of the authorities even. My only
