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.




Best Desktop: AOR 7030+

Also using: Ten-Tec RX-350
Drake SW-2
Yeasu FRG-7
Lowe HF-150
Hammarlund BC-794 (Super Pro)
National NC-88
Hallicrafters S53-A
and others

Best Portable: Panasonic RF-B65

Also using: Grundig Sat 500
Grundig Sat 650 Professional
Grundig Sat 700
Hallicrafters TW-1000
Zenith T/0 3000-1
Zenith T/O 7000-2
and others. Many others.
More than I have room to walkaround.
Please. Help me before I listen again....


You must have a helluva shack, Peter. Can you post
or e-mail a pic sometime? I'm curious how yours looks
like compared to, say, Maghakian's.
