I tried to just give a link to the item on FB but I can't get it to not show my account so I will just state it here and tell you to check out the pics on FB
ICOM R71A Shortwave Receiver - being sold AS-IS comes with antenna.Local pickup or $60 shipping in double box.Pickup at the Walpole Police Station FB/Craigslist parking area at 50 South Street Walpole MALight on meter worked when pics taken by previous owner - doesn't light now, HOWEVER the digital display of numbers works fine This radio works and receives stations but the volume (RF Gain) is flaky and instead of stopping at 0 rotates right around, also the function button doesn't work, and the SWR meter works but doesn't light. Picks up AM stations as well as shortwave broadcasts and the HAM radio bands, I picked up all my local AM stations as well as Radio Romania and Hams in Australia. There is a constant low hum on the set, not sure what that is. Previous owner had the battery replaced in early 2023 - Not sure about that as I haven't opened it.I am selling it as PARTS & AS-IS due to the meter light being out and the AF gain being hard to turn and the RF gain (volume) being flaky. The "0" button can take several pushes to recognize it, keyboard may have to be cleaned with contact cleaner. Not fully tested. Comes with power cord and manual.
