This may not make much sense, but I used the 2002 more than I used the
2010. And the 2010 got used but it was just a bit too big to be really
portable.

Indeed, you're correct. The 7600D was the same as the 2002; 7600DS was
the same as the 2003.

Nice series, the '7600 Sonys. Even the analog '7601 held its own back
in its time. Then there was the '7600DA / 7700, the styling of which
the Degen DE-1103 seems to have been modeled after.

Is that the overseas version of the 2002?

If so I enjoyed one of those for 6 years. So much so I wore the tuning
buttons out... vbg

I use a Sony ICF-7600D that I bought overseas in 1985 with limited
tuning range. Once back in the states, I ordered all the discreet
parts to make it a U.S. model and now it tunes 2-30 MHZ with no gaps
and has a BFO.

I'm curious about what everyone in this newsgroup considers as their
best shortwave receiver. Mainly I'd like to know if there is a
tendency for using portables vs. so-called desktop receivers. My best
radio is a Sony ICF SW7600GR, and at this time, I only have portable
radios.
