What???? Have you ever tried a Sony 2010, 55, 2002 or 7600?

A WJ is really an overpriced poor choice for most SWL's. With a radio
designed for SWL's they will hear he same stations and have a radio
designed for the kind of frequency jumping most of us do. And a Ten
Tec lives on a reputation more than performance.
