The Collins 75S-3 is a vintage and classic ham radio receiver that needs to be heard to be appreciated!
This line includes the 75-S3B and 75-S3C which were designed to mate with the 32S-3 and 32S-3A. If you're
looking for something cheap, the used Collins line isn't the one to look at by any means. These were very
expensive receivers when they were made many years ago and are worth their weight in gold even today! Just
like an expensive classic car or antique, this amateur radio is highly sought after by those that just
enjoy operating a good, tube type receiver and collectors alike! Its legacy and history makes
it just that much more special if you're ever able to own one.
Those that are new to Amateur radio, may not know what their missing in this current digital age we're living
in, however the Collins 75S-3 receiver is something special and that warm tube type sound is not only pleasant
and clean to listen to, it's sound is addicting. After you're had a good sounding tube type
receiver, many of the new digital ham radios often sound like trash in comparison. Don't get
me wrong, I enjoy the newer HF rigs and transceivers too, but when I want to hear to relax and just enjoy
myself, I often prefer the sound of these older boat anchors.
Yes it sounds good and they're well made, but does the Collins 75S-3 have good performance? Well yes
it does! Keep in mind this company was held to a higher standard compared to other
manufacturer due to the fact they also made communication equipment for the govt and military
too! They built them to last and they needed great specs too! This line is no
exception! The Collins 75S-3 receiver line were all well filtered and had great
sensitivity, low noise floor, and above average selectivity too!
