A peak performance tuner . . . FM FET's in
the front end give ameliorated sensitivity and
low-distortion characteristics . . ceramic
filters and integrated circuitry in the FM IF
section mean your new RX-202 has long-
lasting reliability and exceptionally outstand-
ing selectivity advantages.

The HX-ZOZ .005 wide . . . More precisely,
that's 'wide' as far as the linear FM dial scale
is concerned. The extra width means easy,
precise tuning on the easy-to-see vernier scale.

The Fix-202 '06 large . . . The large tuning
knob and meter chalk up big advantages, too:
Smooth flywheel action and clear meter in-
dication. You tune right-on to the station you

Low-noise

Low-distortion power amp . . .
silicon transistors make up a large part of the
RX-202s advanced semi-complementary SEPP

circuitry. This means exceptional output
characteristics, lSW/lSW RMS continuous
power into 8 ohms at less than 1% THD both
channels driven.

NF equalizer amp . . . Here's another per-
formance payoff. A low-distortion 2-stage
direct-coupled NF (negative feedback) circuit
in the RX-202 achieves flawless RIAA charact-
eristics. Tone control circuitry also has the
same high-performance NF-type circuitry for
crisp, clear reproduction.
