Default Looking for newer SW receiver with digital tuning

I bought a Grundig G5 about a year ago from Radio Shack.

About the size of two king size cigarette packages, digital readout, and
almost intuitive to operate with push buttons, and is readout to one kc,
and there is a vernier tuning for SSB and CW. Built in BFO is turned on
and off with a button, and you can tune very accurately.


Can you attach an external antenna to it?

I've seen the little SW receivers on ebay, and they all look like the
old portable transistor radios to me. I realize a lot has changed, so
please tell me: After listening to the old Hallicrafters all these
years, how is the small receiver going to sound? Will it receive as
many stations as the old boat anchor I've been using?
