The front after a good cleaning
The performance of the receiver after all of the adjustments were done is surprising.
Even at 30 megs the receiver performs well. I found the Low frequency reception very good as well.
The Noise limiter and selectivity control made it possible to copy LF beacons that were not noticeable on other
equipment I compared this receiver to. The stepped attenuator in the RF section makes it a very nice receiver to use.
