I already have a sony icf 7600D. But, it is not satisfactory for the
purposes i use it. I need a stronger receiver. I want to listen to
the weak local radio stations of central asia and siberia which
usually uses 49 and 60 meter bands. I don't like to listen to the
amateurs.


It sounds like you're into DXing. The much smaller SW-77, in my opinion, is a
better receiver for DXing than is the SAT800. I own both and I think the higher
noise floor and quality control issues make the SAT800 a receiver for American
program listeners.

A better bet might be a good used Sony ICF-2010.
