Hi nick its raymond three great radios and for what they are work well l like the middle one the best l think the ssb signals are better yesl dont like slider controls on radios and stereo sony amplifiers great video as always
Very interesting video. One comment: the sync lower problem with the heterodyne on the ICF-2010 (6180 khz) should not occur, when you switch the manual tuning knob to "slow", i.e. 100 Hz steps while tuning with the sync on. I own two of these radios and I have never seen a better sync-function to be honest. I fully agree on the design shortcomings. Best regards from Germany
@@Greg-et2dp the SW77 has a pretty cool feature, all I have to do is push one button on the top and it switches the time between local and UTC. I like to run local time because I like to know what time it is where I live unless I need UTC for trying to track or follow short wave broadcasts
Do they do this on purpose or negligence. Neither of these radios are complete! Thd table top lacks sink, the middle portable lacks a good speaker and the portable on the left has it all but a fine tuning :/ . Typical Japanese

I wish the 6800W has a SYNC detector in it. Oh well cant get everything in a single radio, at least not back then...

@@stephank.8453 excellent information! Thank you very much for pointing that out, that is very helpful
Nick you should set the clock on the radios clock to utc time
Good idea

Сигнал/шум лидирует Сони 77. Так же чувствует лучше дальнюю станцию
Thank you for your comments
Hello 6800 looks like a real gem. My opinion there has never been a better sync than the 2010😊.

El icf sw 77 tiene pasos de 50hz en ssb. Yo tuve el sw77 y el 2010. Todavía conservo el 2010. Para mí el 2010 es mejor en general. Saludos
Thank you for the information! Happy holidays!
GUY- OK TO GIVE YOUR OPINION BUT DO YOU really NEED TO USE PROFANITY HERE ?? Grow up.
