I admit to never having used either model, but from reviews and such,
the R8 is supposed to be great for DXing both shortwave and medium
wave. Perhaps improving your antenna would be the better route to go.
The AOR is supposed to be a good loop, but perhaps you could try an
outdoor antenna to improve reception?


Can't have an outdoor antenna.

What about an outdoor antenna that no one can see? Such an antenna
would deliver better performance for a fraction of the cost.
