These are the radios it has come down to once I looked beyond the Realistic DX-160. " Icom R-71a vs JRC NRD-525 vs Kenwood R-1000/5000"
The thing is I have no experience with any of them and only have what I can find on the web to form an opinion with. If anyone here as any had experience with any of these then please......WHICH ONE IS THE BETTER CHOICE FOR A RETIRED GEEZER'S CASUAL DEPENDABLE LISTENING? (Note: Just ONE of these radios I can buy so I must not be able to out grow it too soon, please.)
I need the advice ASAP since I need to move on to learning the antenna end of this hobby.
Thanks in advance.
