Default RE: Single or Double Converstion???


ORIGINAL: da Rock
than for his double conversion RXs.

And if you see a RX that doesn't say "conversion" anywhere, it's because it doesn't matter with that RX from that mfg.

But be careful with that one...

If there is no specification as to the expected range, leaving out anything about filtering and conversion in the advertizing, TENDS to indicate that you are looking at a receiver not suitable for larger/better planes.

Manufactureres are quick to point out better specs, interference filtering and longer ranges.

FYI: Our flying field is surrounded by interference sources... WiFi, Pager Towers, Power Lines, etc.

I have no problem flying with RX's touted as being "dual conversion", "long range tripple filtered ( what does this mean? )", etc.

If I switch to Single Conversion Micro receivers on the same frequency, OH BOY... Glitch, glitch, glitch... crash... even when close in... without fail no matter the brand...

Scanners of course pick up nothing.
