This listing is for anIcom Model R-71A HF Short Wave Receiver with Pass Band Tuning.
The Pass Band Tuning feature did not appear in all production units because Icom ran into some patent issues and had to eliminate the Passband Tuning feature in some later versions. This is a very valuable feature that you will grow to really appreciate.
This receiver covers all frequencies from 100 KHz to 30 MHz in AM, FM (with accessory, not included), SSB, CW and RTTY.
The Icom IC-R71A utilizes a DFM (direct feed mixer) to make the R71A virtually immune to interference from strong adjacent signals.This, coupled with a 100 dB dynamic range, means solid performance for the casual listener or serious DXer.The receiver system is a multi-mode, quadruple conversion superheterodyne covering 100 kHz to 30 MHz with a CPU controlled, 10 Hz step VFO with 100 Hz display resolution.Advanced features include: Pass Band Tuning, IF notch, adjustable AGC, adjustable noise blanker and built-in preamplifier.The R71A also hosts a variety of user conveniences including two independent VFOs (tuners), dial lock, squelch, tone and direct keypad entry.A 32 channel scanning, tunable memory that stores frequency, VFO and mode is also built into the R71A.The rear panel has two, selectable antenna inputs: SO-239 jack and Hi-Z wire input.The top panel features a built-in speaker, plus there is an external antenna jack on the rear panel.
This is a very good radio!
Cosmetically it is excellent in every way.
Of the perhaps 70 or so R-71 receivers I have had over the years, this is one of the nicest one I have seen.
It is also a very unique version of this model as it has a Radio West aftermarket Collins4 kHz Collins mechanical filter (model 526-9694-010) upgrade in the \"wide\" slot for MUCH improved performance on AM and SSB (wide) over the stock filter.
I have never seen one of these before!
Comes with power cord and original owner\'s manual.
This radio plays well on all bands.
It is guaranteed to be working.
The S meter light is working, as you can see.
The tilt bale on the bottom is present.
I am happy to answer your questions to the best of my ability.
