DXers Notebook - Vol. 68, No. 30
By: David Braun, dcbraun@delanet.com

We’re going to spend some time discussing one of the most praised portable receivers around these days – the Sony ICF 2010. The following comments have been culled from various discussions on the listserv over the last few months. This will include some comparisons with the CC Radio. If you’re in the market for a new receiver, maybe it will help you make up your mind. If you have experience with one of these machines, and have something to add after reading this, send it to the listserv if you’re subscribed, or directly to me. Coming soon we will also be looking at various tabletop receivers.

Tony S. <WLMCBuzzed@aol.com>: Maybe I'm opening up one of those "strong parties on both sides" debates, but I've been thinking about buying myself a Sony ICF 2010.....I've noticed a lot of people on this list with one...I'm not too sure on technical details, so I shall resort to this list for help. Sorry if this email is a bit unsophisticated, I'm just 'getting started' compared to most on this list. As of right now, for DXing (which for me doesn't involve much more than a radio and a Terk loop), I use any one of the following:

Would there be anything gained in my DXing adventures by buying a 2010, or am I pretty much covered with, say, the Satellit 700? Also, I understand the "phones out" and "line out" of the 2010 are both Mono, is this true? Aside from DX'ing, I usually use the 700 (with its Stereo tape out) for airchecking FM while on the road....Also, the Satellit 700 is limited to a mere 4khz bandwidth when in "WIDE" mode...Does the 2010 have a wider "Wide" mode?

Russ Edmunds <wb2bjh@nrcdxas.org>: Tony, from what I've both heard and read, the 2010 won't offer you much that the 700 doesn't, and that in some ways the 700 is superior. Not that there's anything bad about the 2010...

Rick Kenneally <woodlandview@yahoo.com>: Tony, Outside of my grandmother's old console set, I've never used a Grundig anything, so I can't offer any sort of comparison. I do, however, own 2 Sony 2010s and love them. Audio is not their strong point, and it is not what I use them for. I believe you are right, that the audio outputs are mono. Again, I don't use them for stereo listening.

What I do use them for is DX, and the synchronous detection/selectable sideband feature is fantastic. It is tremendously effective at improving reception in the midst of a crowded AM band. The wide filter is indeed wide - too wide to be at all useful to a DXer, and wide enough that a SWL will hear 5khz tones. But for listening to AM locals, it's fine.

I installed the Kiwa wide filter modification, and it provided slightly better selectivity than the stock narrow filter, with MUCH better audio. I also installed the narrow filter, but screwed it up so can't as yet comment on it. There is some significant circuit noise in my older set, but the newer one is quieter. Neither is as quiet or as selective as my old Hammarlund HQ-180 when it was in top form, but the Sony's are maintenance-free while the HQ-180 took constant care and feeding. For sheer ability to copy stations under challenging circumstances, I don't think you can beat the 2010 anywhere near its price range and portability. Stop by your local Barnes & Noble and read the reviews in either the World Radio and TV Handbook or, better yet, in Passport to World Band Radio. Those are probably your best source of independent review and comparison. Also, there is an ICF2010 user group on Yahoo.

Hope this helps.

David Hochfelder <hochfeld@rci.rutgers.edu>: Hi Tony, I faced a similar decision in the fall about whether to buy the 2010. I did so at the urging of several people on this list. Of course, I didn't already have a Grundig Satellit. I think it works great, and the synchronous detection and selectivity are both wonderful. I'm able to pull in stuff adjacent to the New York City powerhouses 30 miles up the road. I've also been very happy with the Kiwa Pocket Loop antenna, although from what I've heard and read, Quantum makes a great AM DXing antenna too. The downsides to the 2010: longwave doesn't do much, although maybe that's more of an antenna and power line noise issue. I also find that the knob tuning is not great; because it's digital it doesn't have a continuous feel.

Bruce Conti <BACONTI@aol.com>: Get the Sony ICF-2010; even better, get it with the Kiwa filter upgrade. The 2010 with Kiwa upgrade was my primary DX receiver for many years. I cut my teeth on transatlantic DXing with the 2010. It was even used at a Newfoundland DXpedition.

The rest of this information was seen on the listserv a little while after the above.

Powell E. Way III <powell@conterra.com>: I now have a Sony ICF 2010. Also at the same time got a NEW GE SR III. Got them from Grove. I drove up there to pick them up. Drat, on Friday night the BIIIG thunderstorm was making ALL 10 LED's light.

Kent Plourde <kplourde@home.com>: The Sony ICF 2010 has been a great radio for me. I have been using mine since 1989! It puzzles me why they included the aviation band. I never use it. It is amazing that this model is still in production after all these years. The synch detector is probably its best feature.

Tony S: I can't really say anything nice about my Sony ICF-2010.......As I said a few months ago, I bought one on eBay, and right out of the box I couldn't pick up the simplest and strongest of signals, like 50kw WAQI/710 here in Miami....Just yesterday, I took it to the repair shop, we'll see if they can do something about it. For now, my top DX'ing radio is my Grundig Satellit 700. And, this is a dumb question, but I honestly do not know what the sync detector is supposed to do...Can anyone explain for me?

Frederick R. Vobbe <fredv@nrcdxas.org>: From your description it sounds like the FET on the front end was damaged due to static/voltage on the AM Antenna input. That can be fixed, and then I think you will enjoy that radio.

Solution to the disappearing FET is to put a jumper on the antenna input that has (2) 1N914 diodes in opposite polarity of each other an put this across the center conductor and ground of an RG58 cable. If you are real good with small wiring, they can be installed on the mini plug, then have a 1 foot piece of cable, and whatever you want at the end to connect to for your antenna.

I blew three on my 2010s until I learned that just a small breeze across a long wire > 200 produced a differential of 300 volts at a few joules of current, but that is enough to kill the FET.

Rick Kenneally: Tony, Here is the deal with the sync feature (and those who understand this stuff better than I, have mercy :-)

An amplitude modulated radio signal, as found on the AM broadcast band, consists of a center "carrier" signal and two symmetrical, mirror image "sidebands" on either side of the carrier. I did some web searching, and couldn't locate a good picture to illustrate this. Basically the carrier defines the center frequency of the signal - say 1250 kHz. When audio is added to the signal using standard amplitude modulation, the audio is carried along side the carrier in two "sideband" signals, one above the carrier in frequency and one below. The sidebands are mirror images of each other, and each carries a complete copy of the audio.

So, you've got essentially two copies of the audio you want to hear - one above the center frequency and one below. Now, let's say I want to hear WKBR-1250, but I'm getting slop from WSHU-1260. Most of that slop is hitting the upper sideband of WKBR-1250, the lower sideband is much more readable. On a normal radio, I pretty much get both sidebands. But on the Sony, I tune my 2010 to 1250 and press sync. This locks the receiver circuitry onto the 1250 carrier and "enhances" it. I then tune down slight from 1250, to 1249.8, and the 2010 gives me ONLY audio from the lower sideband, avoiding most of that slop from 1260.

If you want more versions of this, search the web for "exalted carrier selectable sideband", which is a feature normally found on very expensive communications receivers, and is a fancy name for what the Sony 2010 calls "sync".

There is a tiny picture of how this works in my Sony 2010 manual on page 12. If you've got a copy, it might help.

Well, that's the best I can do without drawing :-)

Rick Dau <rdau36@yahoo.com>: How timely this discussion should be. My 2010 (which I bought from Marc Marino of Chicago in June 1997) has just given up the ghost after a few solid years of reliable operation. Darn thing keeps turning itself off (even with the DC cord plugged into it) when I turn it one way or the other on my desk, and when it comes back on, the clock is automatically reset to 0:00 and the frequency reads 150 kHz. This is a problem that only used to occur when the batteries were getting low. Now it's become a regular happening, and it's driven me to the point where I am now in the market for a new receiver. And my next DX rig won't be a replacement 2010, as I saw in a receiver catalog, just this very afternoon, that a new one costs...$359.95!!! One can buy several decent radios and even a loop for that amount, but I already have my eye on the CCRadio (made by the CCrane folks) that I've heard advertised all over hither and yonder for about the past 12 months. Several DXers in the NRC who use the CCRadio say its performance rivals even that of the much-ballyhooed GE Superadio III, which was all the rage amongst DX circles just a few years back. IS the CCRadio the best one on the market as its radio ads say, or is it just a lot of hype? For now, I'm inclined to lean towards the former, but I want to hear what others have to say about it.

Frederick R. Vobbe: Check the battery compartment for a broken piece on AA battery post(s). That will cause that problem, especially if it has been dropped or jarred a bit. BTW, always transport a 2010 with D cells out, as vibration and a good jolt can cause the battery compartment to break.

Thomas Giella, KN4LF <kn4lf@tampabay.rr.com>: In my humble opinion, the CC Radio is the best of all "portables" for the AM broadcast band. It has good sensitivity, selectivity and dynamic range for a portable AND it sounds good too!

Pete Taylor <taytac@worldnet.att.net>: Simply from a mechanical point of view, I have had lots of problems on various Sony products relating to battery connections. The 2010 is no exception. As those of you who have one know, you can't run it on batteries if the back lid is off because the two prongs on the back have to make contact with a globs of solder on two boards. These connections were so unstable that I finally just hard wired them. Even when I'm running it on AC, which I do at home, if I grasp the bottom right hand side of the unit while I twirl the dial with my thumb, it will often cut out on then pop back on - erasing the time setting and the button memories in the process. Operationally, I am in a high intensity signal area and the unit does overload when I use the loop, but I don't have anything to compare it with. The major changes here in last five years are the arrival of KJR's new 50kw XR to jam up mid-band pretty well and the installation of a new breed of audio processors on many of the stations which has made reception of first adjacents to Seattle stations far more difficult. I do find that it picks up much more garbage (many more intermixing products) when I disconnect the loop. Tony's unit's inability to pickup even WAQI-710 is not typical. This unit has a serious defect.

Kevin Redding <amfmtvdx@qwest.net>: Rick, This is something I can weigh in on. I have the CCRadio, my friend Alan Lagerfelder has the 2010. The 2010 is an exceptional radio. It is the 2nd best portable I have used. I have not used a Grundig Satelit 800 so I can't comment. The best hands down is the Drake SW-8 my friend Skip Dabelstein owns. There is no portable I have seen ever better than that but that is in a different league than any other portable.

I wrote a review for IRCA on the CCRadio. I own one. Its a great, maybe even superior radio, *IF* you do not live near transmitters or high RF areas. If you are interested, I will send you a copy of my review. All the other bands other than AM, well in my estimation, to put it bluntly, they suck. Sangean has never made a radio that could receive FM on any frequency without bazillions of images all over the place and that goes for the TV, FM and WX bands on the radio. However, it says that its a good, well at one time they said they were the best, and it is not the best, but if you live away from transmitters, its EXCELLENT.

When its not near high RF fields. IT ALMOST IS AS GOOD AS THE 2010. The 2010 is superior because of sync detection. Without that, it may be a tad better on AM but as soon as the sync detection is on, forget it, its not even a match.

I have used both. The CCRadio is great out of town. In town the thing is so sensitive it overloads easily if you live closer than 5 miles from an antenna. If you live further away, I would buy one. However, be aware that there are "orphaned" units at CCrane and you can get a radio for about $130, or $20 less than full price and the radios are refurbed. There are quirky things with it but overall. If you are only going to DX MW with it, its a buy at the orphan price. Its how I bought mine. If you can't do the $400, then the CCRadio is ok. If you have the $400, then get another 2010.

If you want the review, I will look for it and send it to you Rick. Its real accurate and shows the good and bad. It has warts but its good. I don't think that you are going to be getting megatons of TA or TP DX with it, but I believe that if you aren't a serious, and I mean REAL serious DXer like Bruce Conti, Pat Martin, or Mark Connally, the CCRadio is doable. If you are into the ultra rare, get something else for more money.

Mike Brooker <aum108@idirect.com>: I have a similar problem with my Panasonic RFB-45, when it's running on AC. When I pick it up or turn it, it will almost always turn itself off and the "E" indicator (for low battery) will flash on the frequency/time display.

As long as the receiver sits on the table and is not touched or moved, it won't shut off and flash "E". This never happens when running on batteries, only when using the AC adapter. :-).

Rick Kenneally: Rick, If you want a "DX rig", then there is no comparison. The 2010 will make more signals readable than either the CCRadio or the GE SR III. I bought the GE, tried it against the 2010 for a night, and returned the GE. The lack of digital display, inferior selectivity, and (most important) the lack of synch feature remove it from competition. I don't have experience with the CCRadio, but digital display makes a huge difference in your ability to navigate the band quickly, so that alone puts it above the GE for DXing.

I've now bagged several European splits on my 2010s - both with and without the Kiwa mods. I've received all sorts of tough, weak stations right up against my locals. Recently, as reported on this list, I had crystal clear reception of WKBR-1250-NH because they were slightly low in frequency. When the 2010 synch locked onto WKBR's lower sideband, the rest of the stations on 1250 essentially vanished. The same thing happened when WCCC-1290 drifted low in frequency. Without synch, 1290 was a hash. With synch, poof, as if by magic, classical music appeared.

Now, if you want nice audio for general listening, go for a CCR or a GE.

As for your 2010, it sounds like a problem with the AA processor battery connection. As reported on this list and on the Sony 2010 FAQ, this is a fairly common and fixable problem. Search for "icf2010 faq" and see if you find anything that helps. It sounds like your cheapest route to the best DX rig (of those you listed) is to fix the 2010.

David Hochfelder: I love the Sony ICF2010. It's going to be my main (read "only") DX rig till I win the lottery and buy a megabuck radio. I'm planning on getting the Kiwa mods as a birthday present to myself in a couple months and installing them. My only complaint/wish is that I can't get TA's at all.

Randy Stewart <jrs555t@smsu.edu>: The thread about Sony 2010s vs. other rigs, 2010 problems etc. has been interesting. My main DX radio is still the Yaesu FRG-100/Sanserino 15" box loop combo, but I probably spend more time these days just dialing around on the little Sony 7600G in bed late at night before falling asleep. Seems like someone in the course of this thread mentioned the 7600G's synchronous detector and that it's INFERIOR to that on the 2010. Is it, indeed, a different, inferior, design compared to the synch circuit in the 2010? I thought they were both based on the same chip, and that... well, the Sony synch is the Sony synch is the Sony synch, no matter which model radio it's on. Is there a difference? I've only played with a 2010 briefly in a store, so I have no real knowledge of its performance. But the synch detector on the 7600G does seem to produce blasty, distorted audio on strong but fade-y shortwave signals, and it lose synch rather too easily for my taste. Often I find myself resorting to "old-fashioned" ECSS (i.e. just switching to single-sideband/BFO mode and zero-beating the signal with the SSB fine-tuning control)... it's not as stable, perhaps, but the audio recovery is cleaner, less distorted, than in synch mode.

Bruce Conti: The Sony ICF-2010 was my main DX rig for many years. It was my first real TA-getter too, thanks to Sony's outstanding sync detect circuit and the Kiwa filter upgrade. Kiwa now has a filter upgrade for the CCRadio that should improve its DX performance. I use my CCRadio as a bedside DX receiver. If I wake up in the middle of the night, I'll tune around on the CCRadio to check conditions. The AM is selective enough to receive St. Kitts on 555 kHz on a regular basis. The five memory buttons (like the presets on a car radio) make it easy to jump across the band without having to turn on a light to see what I'm doing. Push button tuning in 10 kHz steps also makes it easy to scan, and a tuning knob allows for fine tuning in 1 kHz increments. The extremely high gain of the CCRadio can make it a powerful AM receiver as it doesn't need an external antenna, but it is apparently a curse for those close to transmitter sites. The Kiwa upgrade might help in that regard. Visit www.kiwa.com for info on the Sony ICF-2010 and CCRadio filter upgrade kits.

Rick Kenneally: Randy, The sync circuit on the 7600G is definitely different and inferior to the 2010. The 7600G requires a much stronger signal to lock, and it loses lock easily. I'm not sure, but it seems to me that the 7600G is more apt to go into "search" mode, while the 2010 seems to maintain the same frequency and phase for a while even when the signal briefly drops to undetectable levels. Thus the 2010 is still locked when the signal comes back up. I'm not sure that's how it works, but it feels like it. I do wish that Sony had used the 2010's circuitry in the 7600G (go with what works! :-)

I've got 2 2010s and a 7600G, and all 3 have their place. The 7600G with the compact Q-Stick ferrite loop from Gerry Thomas's RadioPlus+ makes a good DXing combo for air travel. I also like the audio on the 7600G - the speaker sounds pretty good for its size. I'd have to agree with the "Passport to World Band Radio" assessment that the 7600G is a lot of radio for the size/price. But it is not the DXing powerhouse that the 2010 is.

Kent Plourde: I own both the CC Radio and the Sony 2010. I like both radios, but I prefer the Sony for serious DXing. Pros of the CC Radio:

I like the style of the radio. It is pleasing to the eye with rounded corners, large speaker grill and large LCD readout. It is a good bedside clock radio because the LCD is continuously lit up. I also like the Weather Band with alarm feature, which can be a flashing light or audio siren. Contrary to other posts, I find the FM selectivity excellent. During FM skip conditions, I have no problem hearing stations that are adjacent to my locals. On the TV Band, channels 2-6 come in better than channels 7-13. I pick up New York channels 2 and 4 regularly even though I am about 10 miles from Hartford channel 3's tower in Avon. What about the AM? Well it is very good, especially during the day hours. Which brings me to....Cons of the CC Radio:

There are problems with the AM. As mentioned in previous posts, it does overload on stations very close by. My local, WPRX 1120 (1000 watts day and 500 watts), does splash from 1090 to 1150. However, my major problem with the AM is the intrusion of the 49 meter shortwave band starting in the late afternoon through the evening. These shortwave signals are funny because they pop up in 1kHz increments. I can get Radio Espana on 675khz but nothing on 674 or 676. There is a shortwave station that regularly pops up on 870 and I can hear an utility station behind WBZ 1030. They are all over the place. I also have heard Radio Habana on 1710 as others have, but I'm sure it was their shortwave popping up on the CC Radio. Another major problem is the LCD readout. Last year I had to send the radio back to California because the LCD readout became unreadable. The diodes were all jumbled to the point that I could not make out what frequency I was on. The technician on the phone said that it was probably a loose cable connecting the LCD display. I had it repaired at no charge and it worked great until last week when the same problem appeared. I'll call CC Radio tomorrow and see what they say this time.

Bottom line with the Sony 2010: I'll stick to the Sony for serious DXing. The synch feature is great not only for reducing adjacent channel interference but also for reducing fading. The New York 50000 watt powerhouses like WFAN and WCBS are subject distortion at night due to the groundwave and skywave canceling each other out (I think I got that right, I am very low tech) from my location about 80 miles away. It is the radio I use when listening to the lowly Mets.

With the Select-a-tenna, the Sony is the best for me. The 10 position red LED tuning meter makes using the Select-a-tenna a snap.

We’ll have more on the CC Radio, and also some details on the Kiwa filter upgrade for the 2010, next time.
