Like I said to each his own. Regardless of how much noise a receiver has there will always be a point that an incoming signal will not register but be heard. The only real test is on a bench comparing its side by side to another rig with the same signal generator. I had the opportunity to play with an Icom 7000 and was not impressed with the factory receiver sensitivity. Fortunately after having the receiver reworked it's performance was comparable to all of my other radios.
I relayed your question to him and he did not directly answer my question so I'm unable to accurately give you information you're looking for. He has several videos perhaps if you watch all of them you might be able to extrapolate the informationquestion
i would like to ask here is is this -135DBm (0.0399Uv)@ 50 ohm at 10Db sinad or 12 db sinad or 10 dB S + N/N i see no where what that is referenced to
just you posting a number please explain the test procedure? .
i have yet to see any cb shop video show this in there super duper "tests "
(well expect two guys in Europe but their English is second language and unbearable however interesting videos with real merit and no sloppy tilting videos )
also has he taken into account noise in the test gear?
..his detected level maybe lower than this -135db figure
What? So because he is an "Extra" that makes it okay? Lot's of book smart Extra's out there.
It doesn't make it okay it means he sent those people money and he got what he ordered. The whole point of mentioning this guy was to validate the legitimacy of the website offering that radio @ $180 to alleviate any concerns you might send your money and get ripped off because it's a Chinese company.
