CC-Skywave-SSB review

Sunwave

03 march 2022

A very good little radio that fits in your coat pocket. Has good single side band reception. I use it daily for nearly a year so far no failures. Batteries last a day or two on a fresh recharge using NiMh AA batteries. I like how it knows the amateur radio bands while SSB mode is on and with it in AM mode on shortwave it knows the broadcasts bands. It has smart memory feature which remembers if a programmed frequency was for SSB and which bandwidth.

It has a Automatic Tuning System that stores every signal it comes across into memory. 700 memories. I use it on occasion.

I recommend it.
