Another fellow mentioned a G5 from Grundig he got at RS. AFAIK, they are
the same rig inside.

I just read reviews on the E5/G5 at http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6815.
I think I'm looking for something that's not designed to be portable,
that will accept an external antenna, and that doesn't use batteries.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. I learned a good bit reading about
these.

No problem! :-)

Eton also has the E1, which is the non-portable version.

Cheers!
