sw07 is very gizmo-ish.

You may think it is "gizmo-ish" but if I had a choice of your three picks I
would take the SW07.
Why? Because I own one and the SW07 version of the Sony sych-detector is
superior to ANY portable/luggable SW radio ever built - period.

7600gr gets nothing but praise.

Indeed because the price//performance/value factor is excellent.
And it also has a synch-detector but not as good as the SW07.
