"Tim Kass" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterence to the drakelist gang
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have had both as well and the late model C line (serial # 25K) is preferred in terms of selectivity, however, that said, on the C line, the passband does not function in the AM mode, and therefore, for shortwave broadcasting listening, I prefer the somewhat broader and richer sound from the B line. The B line was a complete radio out of the box, 4 selectable L/C filters, built in Noise blanker, etc. The C line, these were options, the xtal filters were certainly better as was the noise blanker, but by the time you get what you want, you have spent a great deal more money on the C line. Personally, I still prefer the B line, richer-warmer sound to it. But again, depends what you want. I I wanted a contest radio, I wouldnt choose a Drake now anyways, but for casual rag chewing, get the B line and save a few bucks.
