N9EWO -Dave's Radio Receiver Page

Welcome to "Dave's Radio Receiver Page". Here is my little spot on this earth to pass along my experiences and or comments about "Radio Receivers", as well as other gizmos that I use in my radio monitoring / recording ventures. My main focus is in the "Shortwave" part of the radio spectrum. A few other radio related items have been thrown in too , including amateur radio equipment reviews and views that may not be directly related.

I have been playing around with radio receivers for over 40 years now, and in this time span my fingers have run across many models, some really good and some really bad. Most comments you read here have been pulled from my own head, but from others as well (as noted). All observations from me are being made with the 2 ear / 2 eye method, so no fancy test equipment here. These of course are my views and your findings may well be different.

Any set being listed on these pages does not mean that I own it or plan on owning.

I'm sorry if any part of this site seems to have a "Soap Box" slant to it , but I tell it like it is with my "hard - hitting" unbiased hands on reports. To the dismay of some readers, our reviews also contain comments / views and links from other owners / reviews and information sources. We have been doing it this way since 1998 and are NOT going to change our charter to be skewed by other forces.

"Thank You" for stopping by and enjoy your visit to this web page.....Dave N9EWO

********** Donations Please **********

ANY donation amount is very much appreciated to help keep "Dave's Radio Receiver Page" here on the internet and updated. I hope that we still provide totally unbiased equipment information for the radio listening hobby that you do not see anywhere else. A number of ways you can make a donation to me :
* Send whatever amount you wish direct in US Dollars (US postal money order, check via a US bank, cash in US Dollars) to my current "Amateur Radio" mailing address (QRZ data is good) (Amateur Radio Call : N9EWO) or please just contact me at the above email contact for my US mailing address. "Bank to Bank" transfers are not available. Even a $ 1. or $ 2. US Dollar CASH donation sent via postal mail directly to me is very much appreciated.
* Send a donation using "Pay-Pal" (not necessarily in US dollars as they do any conversion). For "Pay-Pal " donations (click here, I'm located in the USA) . ONLY use my email address as listed above. Please Note : You will see the recipient as "Terrence H." , he receives the "Pay-Pal" donations for me.
* Donations of old working (or at least easily repairable) "solid state" radio receivers or amateur transceivers of at least some worth. No basket cases / floor sweepings or general junk please. A huge plus if it's a SW/HF-receiver/transceiver that I can possibility review here, but this is not a requirement. Please contact me in advance before you ship anything to me (a few pictures would be great). Any donated radio would have to be postpaid to me and if outside the USA any ALL possible duty fees MUST be covered by the sender. No tube / valve type equipment please.

If you wish to remain anonymous (and I never use last names in any event), please be sure to tell me. "THANK YOU" to all who have helped to keep this web page here / updated and for new content. A special thanks to those who have donated test samples. Sorry, I no longer write reviews with test samples on a "loaner" basis (I require proper compensation for my time / hard work doing reviews with radios I "normally" care not to actually own/purchase). Dave N9EWO
