Receive on the radio is very sensitive to the point of being noisy (much like the CRE 8900 I just reviewed). In the next couple of days I plan to do some on-air recordings so I can hear it for myself and compare it to a couple of other radios. I also got good reports last night from a station in Canada and good feedback from a station in Las Vegas this morning.

They said it didn't sound overmodulated and audio was loud and clear. With the radio "peaked" WR178 and two other stations reported zero distortion, ever when I added the Turner +3. Frequency stability remained right on from turn on to turn off. The heatsink got warm to hot to the touch but nothing extreme for 20 minutes of straight talking. I have heard some early reports of 80-90 watts output from some people, I'm guessing this can depend on the tuning, microphone, meter etc. I was running this through a low pass filter for testing. Both AM and SSB will peak 5 watts higher with a whistle but that's not what I usually go by. With adjusting the internal pots up AM is keying 15 watts and peaking at 65 watts, SSB is peaking around 75. I've known WR178 for years and I trust his on air opinion, when a radio doesn't sound good on the air he's always the first to tell me.Īs for tuning I usually try to max everything out initially and see if there is distortion or overheating and then back it down. I had a long conversation with WR178 this morning to discuss how it sounded on air and he reported that the audio was very good (with the stock microphone, we tested a turner +3 desk mike and SRA-158 and the stock mike sounded the best). ĭepth from the top end heatsink to channel selector 23.8 cmĭepth from beginning to end heatsink faceplate 21.So, price and color changing lights aside, in my testing last night and this morning I found this radio to be bang on frequency straight out of the box.

The internal structure of the DR135 DX is extremely neat and tidy. Although it looks like a standard USB cable it is NOT and using the wrong cable can damage the unit!. The unit is also programmable using an optional USB programming cable and software via the jack located on the rear panel. The built-in front microphone socket is a 6-pin and corresponds to the GDCH standard.

It comes with a hand-held electret microphone with channel selector and button to activate the automatic squelch. the DR135 DX could even fit in a car radio DIN slot.
