Description

NOTE: I would prefer a Money Order or Bank Check for this item. Please choose Check or MO for payment. this will reserve this listing for you. When I receive the payment I will ship.

This JRC (Japan Radio Co.)  NRD-515 Premium All Band Receiver, comes with the NDH-518 Digital Memory Unit & NVA-515 matching Speaker, and 600 Hz Optional Mechanical Flilter.  This set is in Collector Quality Condition.

 It is stunning when you see the condition of this station. I have the original shipping cartons for the Radio and Digital Memory Unit. The speaker can be packed well. I will also include the original manuals

  This Receiver is well known as a high quality premium receiver. Testing it I discovered it has a great noise blanker which got rid of the pesky electric fence noise next door.

 The receiver has pass band tuning, an attenuator and a 30 position band selector to quickly tune in any band.

 I was very impressed at the sensitivity and excellent audio from this NRD-515.

The NRD-515 has the hard to find optional 600 Hz Mechanical CW filter installed.

Please read the description below to see the other bandwidths and specifications.

 The NDH-515 has had the capacitors replaced. This synthesized memory unit will store 100 memories and like the radio, is perfectly frequency stable. 

  At some point the KIWA Electronics company offered an Audio modification kit to tailor the receive audio to suit your preferences.  I will include this kit which was purchased and never used which is not surprising as the rig already has excellent audio through the matching speaker.

I am selling thid beautiful Premium receiver as is as described, for a freind who is down sizeing.

The Japan Radio Company NRD-515 has earned a reputation for outstanding quality and unexcelled performance.

This radio covers 100 kHz to 30 MHz in RTTY, CW, USB, LSB and AM modes. It is the unchallenged favorite for RTTY/FAX reception, coming from the marine radio tradition for which JRC is famous.

A digital VFO with with phase lock loop synthesizer, combined with a photo-type rotary encoder results in tuning totally free of backlash, reading error and secular variation. The up-conversion double superheterodyne circuit virtually eliminates images.

Frequency selection is very intuitive. Just select the desired MHz. and then tune the main tuning knob or rapid up-down switch.

Effective passband tuning is provided to eliminate adjacent channel interference during CW/SSB reception. Selectivity can be selected independent of mode. A 6.0 and 2.4 kHz filters are provided as well as two additional slots for optional filters.

Other refinements include:  Attenuator, Delta (Fine) Tuning, S-Meter, Noise Blanker and External VFO.

The rear panel has antenna input and speaker output jacks as well as a connector for the optional memory or keypad. This radio requires a speaker such as the optional NVA-515. Optional NDH-515 and NDH-518 external memories were offered.

JRC eventually also produced the NCM-515 wired frequency controller. The NRD-515 was an affordable follow up to the NRD-505 and a perfect mate for the matching NSD-515 transmitter. Supplied accessory pack includes: 4 RCA phono plugs, 1 PL-259, spare S-meter lamp, phone plug, J3 TX plug.
