OK, here's my favorites, in order of appearance:

Eton E1
Panasonic RF-2200
Icom IC-718
Nordmende Globetraveller II
Sangean ATS-606AP
Kaito KA-105
Grundig YB300PE

What are you talking about: DX power or good audio? No one receiver is
perfect for all things. Portability comes to mind. Aesthetics may also come
into play.
I've owned the WJ-1000 for about a month (which sucked) and traded it in for
the AOR 7030 that I had for 11 years before I sold it. Also, a NRD-525
side-by-side with the 7030. Each receiver had very strong points, but again,
no one receiver does it all.
Will the Icom 9500 pull it off?

OK gang, wanting to know: your favorite "Desktop Receiver". should

be a receiver you own and use most, (not one you wish you had). a post

on the yahoo groups on most popular desktop receiver got me thinking.

one commented on the brag lines added on the DX list on all the high

end receivers some use.

so, i'll start-

AOR AR7030+ my fav.

AOR AR3030, most used.

GOOD DX!.
