FOR SALE:
Realistic DX200 receiver. Here is an excellent shortwave receiver
with
Dual tuning dials. It is all checked out thoroughly and in excellent
shape.
The Radio Shack DX-200 has good shortwave reception
performance.
The receiver is an older model with an analog frequency readout.
The use of
analog type tuning eliminates noisy digital synthesizers so common
with inexpensive shortwave receivers. A good little performer.
The controls on the front panel includes Antenna trim, AGC
fast/slow, BFO pitch with USB/LSB indication, Bandswitch (5
bands), RF gain, AF gain, Mode switch
with SSB/CW-Standby-AM-AM/ANL,
Has the calibrator, main tuning and bandspread tuning. The front
panel includes
a headphone jack. The bands as displayed on the upper drum type
dial have
LED indicators. Both drum type dials have an adjustable line to
align the
frequency readout. Using the frequency calibrator assists in
alignment.
This radio is very sensitive. The DX200 has a product detector for
SSB and
the modes include: AM, SSB and CW. The antenna input is a two
terminal type
for 'twin lead.' You can simply use an end fed random wire antenna
to one
terminal. The automatic noise limiter is effective on most noise
and it does not distort the audio. The radio is superior to the new
handheld
and portable type receivers.
Included AC power cord in excellent shape. Everything works on
this radio
as it should. This receiver comes with a decent copy of both the
service manual
and the operators manual
Available for $125.00 plus shipping
