wrong on all counts

Sat 800 Problems:
1. Obviously a good receiver for program listening, but not sensitive enough
for anything approaching DX.
2. Gigantic size and weight makes it unwieldy.
3. Bandscanning hampered by digital hash from the display.
4. Low-level AC hum in audio overwhelms DX.
5. Requires 6 D batteries and will drain them in three hours.
I've ended up listening to my DX398 more than the SAT800. Much prefer my old
Sony 6800W to the 800.
