bap8guy | DX-160 Shortwave Radio Listening, Circa 1975 build @bap8guy | Uploaded October 2013 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
The Realistic DX160! A shortwave receiver from the mid 1970's that covers 150Khz to 30Mhz in 5 Bands. Despite what some reviews have said about it, I was quite impressed with it's sensitivity (once I got it working and properly aligned)! I let you listen to Beijeng China, Bucharest Romania, Russia, Australia, Mexico, South America and a collection of Ham Operators, including one from Milan Italy and another from San Diego! Happy listening! Connected to 80ft wire antenna. Many of those channels came in as clear as local stations!
