This receiver was built from 1984 as successors of the EKD 100 at the Funkwerk Köpenick.
Specifically there were the EKD 315 and EKD 316 as model with case.
There was furthermore the variations EKD 305, EKD 306 and EKD 325.
These models were conceived as build-in version. (EKD325 specifically for rack-mounting).


In the frequency area between 14 kHz and 30 MHz, you can receive the modes A1, A3, SSB, A4, F1 and F4.
Below also - from approximately 2 kHz - receiving is possible.

    The service-friendliness of the receiver is great, you can see it here.
    The entire front can be folded down - so approaches one at all modules comfortably:

    The almost unbeatable receiving-qualities results from the extremely clean construction.
    Each cassette is shielded with silver-plated sheet metal - also the 4 modules per cassette among each other.
