I wonder if they'd consider spending 20% or so LESS on advertising and
putting the money saved into research to improve their portable radios.
Why, after all these years, do NONE of their small portables feature a
synchronous detection circuit and why do so many of their new models
offer single conversion when, at similar or even lower prices, other
manufacturers offer dual conversion? (In MY opinion, anyone who spends
$150.00 on an ANALOG single conversion SW radio, no matter how "good"
it supposedly sounds, is wasting money!)

Just my thoughts.

I have bought over the years, three Hallicrafters SX-62A's and one
SX-62 each one cost a little over $150.00. Single conversion.....good
receiver, great audio, has a decent fm section, what's not to like?
YMMV

Opinions are like rear ends, many of them stink!
