I'd probably do my SWL/MWL-ing at a table or desk.

It just seems so wimpy trying to manipulate
a pocket-book-sized receiver.

No hand-full tuning knobs, no toggle switches,
no glow of the 6.3v dial lamps.

...and try straining to the audio of a 2.5" speaker
for 4 or 5 hours.....

I do my late night MW listening in bed now.
Only problem is that when I nod off to sleep,
I tend to "toss the radio"...
( find it all over the bedroom in the morning )

I will say this... no tube radio would survive the punishment.

Do any SW/MW listeners still have a "shrine"
where their rig is set up ?

Here is my 'shrine':
