This radio has it all! It has every high tech reception aid available
I.e. sync detector that really works, passband tuning,and three band
widths. As a swler for over 20 years the only thing that could do
better is a table top that would cost you over $1000.00. As for all
other aspects of the radio it does fantastic! Also the xm is thrown in
to boot. the only thing i found was the external antenna connetion
gets warm not very but noticeable. Over all the radio gives you great
bang for your buck! I use mine every day with great results!

Thank you David. I'd say best portable ever & I've been DXing since
1965. Have heard on it many Latin Americans & Africans below 8 MHZ with
just the whip. And on MW (AM BCB), during Oct, had audio on 28
Trans-Atlantic frequencies- Europe, Africa & Middle East, using the
small Radio Shack loop. George S., MN
