Specifications of shortwave radios from various manufacturers
Last updated June 6, 2006
The information below was compiled during my (so far unsuccessful) search for the ideal shortwave radio to
replace my old Sony ICF-2010. I discovered that there was so much information to digest, the only way to
organize it was to put it on a Web page. Much of this information has been pasted directly from the vendors'
Websites and may or may not be factually correct. Where the information is known to be incorrect or misleading,
this is noted. Most of the opinions are my own, based mostly on the publicly available specifications and
comments from various Internet sources.
The information describes the specifications of receivers that I have not tested, and summarizes the opinions that
seem to be generally held about each receiver based on comments I found on the Internet. I have not personally
verified any of this information.
In case you're interested, I decided not to buy any of the radios listed here, but repaired my old Sony instead.

Software-defined radios
The number of software defined receivers is exploding. This is an incomplete list of a few popular SDRs, not
necessarily the most capable or flexible ones. Many of these are nothing more than computer boards, and
considerable expertise is needed to install and use the product. Others, like the Winradio, are more
consumer-friendly.
See http://www.dxzone.com/catalog/Software/Software_Defined_Radio/
