The digital display used in the R30 was discontinued by our supplier without warning. We are currently redesigning the display PC board to use a different display module. Once that process is complete, R30 production will resume. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause our customers. Palstar Management Price: R30CC $675.00 The Little Radio That Could Most modern shortwave receivers have front panels that look like the flight deck of a 747, full of controls that are seldom, if ever, used. Palstar has taken a different approach. The R30 has simple controls, but there is no performance sacrifice for simplicity’s sake, because the R30 has outstanding strong signal handling, high sensitivity, and large dynamic range to eliminate annoying intermodulation interference. Two world famous Collins IF filters provide unmatched selectivity. The radio also features 100 programmable memories, variable rate tuning and switchable bandwidths in all modes. All of that is great, but the thing most people comment on when first hearing an R30 play, is its unmatched audio quality, especially when using a high quality speaker such as our SP-30. The R30 has a full 5 Watts of audio power to drive large external speakers. High quality basics, Small footprint and Portability. The R30 HF shortwave receiver is a compact, high performance radio capable of receiving AM, CW and SSB signals in the 100KHz to 30 MHz spectrum. Unlike most general coverage SW receivers, the R30 is not desensitized on the LF and MW bands, making it ideal for Standard Broadcast Band DXing. All of this is squeezed into a footprint that fits inside a sheet of paper. The R30 receiver is also equipped with a 10 AA cell internal battery pack that automatically connects to the radio when the external adapter plug is disconnected, allowing portable operation.
