The item you are viewing is a Vintage 1970\'s Realistic DX-300 AM-SSB-CW (0 - 30 MHz) Full Frequency Radio Receiver. This was made in Japan by GRE for Radio Shack sometime in the late 1970\'s. It has been tested and is working perfectly and in good condition as well. I was able to tune in AM radio stations just fine but I don\'t have a big enough antenna that is needed to pull in stronger and more distant broadcasts. It shows normal wear from age and use with normal surface wear with some scratches and surface wear. All the lights and display digits are fully functional and the signal strength meter is fully functional. The battery compartment is clean with no corrosion. All the knobs are functional and intact.

The Realistic DX-300 was developed during a period when consumer shortwave receivers were transitioning from purely analog tuning to digital frequency displays.
