That is why I bought the Sangean instead..and a DX 398. The tuning

Did you do any mod's to either?



Nothing yet. There seem to be some trade-offs involved in most of the
modifications. If the customization bug ever hits, I still have a spare,
stock radio to fall back on. I have adapted a stereo jack for the
external antenna port that overrides the built in AM ferrite rod. It's
an easy external change.
