Default Good AM Medium Wave Receivers? Sony ICF-EX5?

If iboc winds up being on full time,day and night,,,, what is the use in
buying a good DX Radio anyway? About four or five years ago,I bought a
radio at Sears.The radio is Stereo (but not real quality stereo,if you
know what I mean?) AM FM with a CD Player on top of the radio and two
seperate speakers.I have the radio put up somewhere now and as usual,I
would have to move a lot of my junk out of the way to even get at the
radio.It is a grey color radio and I think the brand name is something
like Sound (whatever it is,similar to those GPX radios.Some of those off
the wall brand name radios are really good at DXing AM stations) I paid
about $30.00 for the radio.I am pretty amazed at how well it picks up
long distance AM stations.
