What Transceiver To Buy?
My questions are:
What is your opinion of which would be the best DXer's XCVR for a home
station?
Ditto for a take along portable?
I am just getting into ham radio -- I don't even have a license yet! I want to
work DX a lot. Seems like a lot of fun. I want to get started as a SWL --
just leave the Xmtr off.
I noticed in the "How's Your DX" column of the current QST, that several DXers
stated they took Icom's IC-706 with them when travelling to far away places to
set up a temporary DX site.
A review of the half-dozen back issues of QST makes few mentions of XCVR brands
in the DX columns.
My question is: what is your opinion of which would be the best DXer's XCVR for
a home station?
