Excellent choice! When I see top quality gear like this in action I cannot imagine why anyone would want to run vintage rigs.

Welll vintage radios is where Ham radio got its start. I run a Drake TR-4c and Knwd TS 830s two great ole rigs.

Is it true that the second receiver sounds better than the main receiver? I heard that they put the 590's receiver in the second receiver and the main receiver doesn't sound as good I just thought I'd ask that's what I've been hearing.

To unpack a radio like this and switch it on would give any Ham pleasure after waiting for the delivery. It is a thing of great beauty. If your just going to make derogatory remarks you should not be watching anything like this to do with Amateur Radio. Take up another hobby. 73 de John - G0WXU

Gday from VK. I am giving this rig some serious attention now, what if any short commings ?? and or things that could be better and how would you say it stacks up against the IC7800 forgetting the $ tag of both. Thanks for the video also, makes me want one even more to give my 440sat a stable mate. :)

do ham operators still have those huge horizontal outside antenna ? or is there more visually friendly antennas if anyone knows? thanks
@pmkleinp8 жыл бұрын
+Robert Kerr I have a wire antenna about 40 feet in the air and I can talk around the world. Anyone with a radio this expensive would definitely have one of those huge rotating horizontal antennas. Those big antennas are called beams and technically known as Yagi or Yagi-Uda antennas after their Japanese inventors.
