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.


Portable: Sony ICF-2010 and/or Drake SW8 (semi-portable)

Desktop (Tabletop): Drake R8B


Same for me, except that I would add the Lowe HF-225E to the Desktop
category.

On the "most pleasant to listen to" category, I would choose my Philips
D-2999.
