Subject: [Electronics-talk] HD radio again

Hi all,

I just received my new Sparc TX2 from Amazon!  It is truly a fine radio! 
When I put in the three double A batteries, I heard static since it came up 
on an empty channel and the voice was speaking immediately!  It is the most 
sensitive HD radio I have seen thus far!  It out performs the Narrator and 
another table top HD radio I have!  i can hear two stations in Regina 
Saskatchewan Canada, a station in Williston,  North DaKota,  a station in 
Great Falls, Montana and one in Glendive Montana  from my home in Billings 
Montana!  Most of these stations are 200 miles or more from me!  This is 
during day time hours! Great Falls is the closest station.  C Crane would 
not need to be ashamed of this radio! It has great sound and performance for 
it's size and price!  It out performs a few of his smaller radios!  I'm 
calling them to recommend they handle this particular radio!  The radio 
scans the bands very quickly!  It lacks a carrying handle!

I went to a meeting in Helena which is our state capitol.  I heard my first 
Montana station with multiple streams.  The station wasn't much to write 
home about yet the radio performed  nicely!

I wanted an HD radio which can get both Am FM hd streams.  I finally have 
it!

Jim
