Warren, I am John Wagner, a retired person who also works part time at
Universal Radio. I am not trying to sell anything with this Email. I just
happened to see one of your Emails that came to me via the SWLFest mail
list.
I see you have John F's Magnavox D 2935. John F. only sells "Good Stuff"
and that D 2935 is a great portable. At one time I owned a matching pair of
Magnavox's, the D2935 & it's big brother the D 2999. They where a handsome
pair but the D 2935 actually out performed the bigger D 2999. The D 2935 I owned
allowed for use of a "Ferrite rod antenna" on all Bands, or you could chose to
use the whip or even an external (not a big one) antenna. Is your D2935 like
that (allows you to use the ferrite rod on the SW Bands if you want)?
The bigger D 2999 was a beauty, chromed like an Elvis Cadillac! It had 2
speakers, a lage one & a smaller one good for Ham Band listening. The big
speaker was great. But, it was not a true Desk Top rig as it tuned SSB via a BFO
& the front end was not all that great.
