I notice you own the S800, R75, and SW77. I'm curious to know which you use
most and for what. Or maybe you use one of the others most? I had an SAT 800
but didn't like it much. I've never tried an SW77.

Actually, right now I'm using the 6800W the most. Great audio, low noise floor.
The R75 is what I use for hams and DX. Next is a toss up between the SW77 and
the 2010 with Kiwa filters. I like both for broadcast. Beside the bed sits both
the DX-398 and the SAT800, both primaily used for MW reception, using a RS
loop. The 7600G is the travel radio that I carry in my car and to the office.
It's in a carrying pouch with it's own AN-LP antenna.

I've made clear, in other threads, that I am also not too thrilled with the SW
performance of the SAT800. I prefer the 2010 slightly over the SW77.

But I'm sure Telamon will tell you that I lie so much that I probably don't own
any radios at all. Aren't we just so lucky?
