Hi there, this is turning out to be a great radio. Portable, of course, but large enough to use as a table-top receiver, with excellent audio, good audio bandwidth filtering and excellent sensitivity on an external antenna. I wonder how good it is on shortwave?!

Recorded in Oxford UK on 15/01/25 at 00:54 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna, plugged into the external LW/MW antenna socket.

Thanks for watching and 73.
