I'm thinking about getting a YB 400 but also saw a listing for a
TECSUN PL-230 (GRUNDIG YB-550PE) and was wondering if you had any
commentary on the model and/or brand.

Thankz


There's a review of the 550 by Judah Smith, at radiointel.com

I'd recommend a portable with SSB capability... Sony 7600GR, YB400 (it's called something else now)
or Degen DE1103.
If I was recommending one based on performance for amount of money spent I'd unhesitatingly tell you
to get the
DE1103.
