Alinco DX-SR8T

About this radio

A budget entry-level HF-only transceiver from Alinco's 2000s lineup, covering 160-10m at up to 100W, with selectable Low and Super-Low power stages down to about 1W for QRP work. The general-coverage receiver tunes 135 kHz to 30 MHz. Alinco positioned it as one of the least expensive full-featured desktop HF rigs of its era, with a simple, uncluttered control layout and no VHF/UHF coverage. It became a common recommendation for newcomers wanting an affordable, no-frills way onto the HF bands, and that reputation keeps it circulating steadily on the used market today.
