[heathkit] DX200 Receiver



FOR SALE: REALISTIC DX200 Shortwave Receiver

Here is an excellent HF 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.

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.

The radio is very sensitive. It 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.

This receiver 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
copy of both the service manual and the operators manual.

Available for $125.00 plus shipping
