Review: Sangean ATS-505 Shortwave Receiver

Recently I purchased a Sangean ATS-505 shortwave receiver. I had some money to spend and I figured I needed a portable receiver for the summer to monitor shortwave transmissions, especially amateur radio activity. That is also the reason why this review is geared towards SWL’s and radio amateurs.
I bought the receiver in an electronics shop in the center of the town where I live, Utrecht. It cost me about 90 euro’s. I think that is an acceptable price considering this receiver has full shortwave coverage and can receive SSB transmissions.
