Thread: want to buy SW radio with SSB

Hi friends, I am from Chennai and I am looking to buy a DEGEN, TUSCAN AM/FM/MW/SW radio with SSB facilities to listen to HAM RADIO and other SW bands.

But in chennai i did not find anywhere such radios ;( not even in ritchie street. Usually people are not understand for what i need radio, as now radio is literally extinct in the market, but there is totally different world for amateur radios / ham radios i just want to buy a receiver and listen to conversations afterwards if it interests me will get license and buy a transceiver.

I want to buy radio like this..

TECSUN PL660 Portable Radio FM/LW/MW/SW/SSB/AIRBAND PL | eBay

Tecsun PL-600 AM/FM/LW SSB Shortwave Radio, Black | eBay

Please suggest me....

Please contact the hamradio communities in India.. Hamradio is not very popular in India, but because of recent natural disasters have paved the demand for license. (Which is obviously merciless process).

Right now i can help with this only..
