Default What in your opinion is the most underestimated receiver around?

Tabletop or portable. Doesn't matter whether it's still being
manufactured or not.

Boston Acoustics Receptor HD.

HD doesn't work very well but this is an exceptional analog radio.

- Fantastic selectivity, both AM and FM. Indeed, while listening to
analog stations the Receptor HD is nearly immune to interference from
adjacent-channel HD stations.
- Excellent sensitivity.
- Excellent audio quality.
- Shows RDS on FM.

Downsides:
- Self-interference problem on AM. Requires outdoor antenna for good AM
reception.
- Not enough audio output power.
- Way too expensive!

Pretty expensive for ugly, Chinese-made junk, with 2" speakers - I'll
stick to my $10 Sony ICF-S10MK2, thanks ! If you bought this piece of
junk, you should be proud of yourself, for supporting the HD Radio
Cartel, in destroying the broadcast bands with IBOC. Looks like,
consumers don't give a damn, about this farce and fraud:

at Metrocenter Mall www.metromalljackson.com anna,anna at Northpark
Mall wayyyyyy up North across County Line Road from Jackson
www.visitnorthpark.org and another Radio Shack store (they are
scattered all around the Jackson metro area,half a dozen of them or
more,I think it's eight or nine of them stores) in that little strip
next to the Wal Mart store I go to,a mile and a half South (South is
always best) of doggy's couch.
