I plan on buying a portable shortwave receiver, and am only
considering models that I can purchase new. So far, the ones that have
caught my attention are the Kaito KA2100, Sony ICF-SW7600, Sangean ATS
909, Sangean ATS 505, and the Grundig G5.

I'd like to hear from people who own one or more of these sets.
Obviously, I'm not looking for a feature/spec comparison, as I can do
that on my own. What I want are opinions on build quality, ease of
use, real-life effectiveness, etc.

TIA.


UPDATE: I'd also like to hear comments from anyone who has used the
Kaito KA1103.
