I am looking to buy a DX-398 and was wondering if this unit has better
reception than an ATS-505? I listen most to MW, but I wanted to get into
some SWL. I am new to swl.



Phillip,
Get the DE1102, it is a DX machine, and even though I own a 398.......I'm
sure ahem that it is junk compared to the DE1102.

If you want to do some 'serious' DX go with the 1102, price is right (don't
believe-you get what you pay for) and throw you out about ten-15 ft. of wire
and you'll hear Nigerians keying a watt off the metal plate in their head. ;-)
