Like many others, I would recommend the Kaito KA 2100 if you like the S350
sound. Tuning is rock stable and performance is quite surprising for the
price.

The Kaito 2100 or Redsun 2100?

Also, I forgot to ask this. In additon to SW and SSB listening, I
really would like to have a radio that can pull in distant AM stations
if that is possible. I don't want to offend anyone, but I like radio
talk show host, Michael Savage and our city dropped him in favor of
Michael Levine. As I tune around AM with my cheapy pocket radio, I can
faintly hear Savage, so I imagine a radio that can pull in far-away AM
stations might make hearing him easier.

With that in mind, does that change anyone's recommendation? I have
figured I can afford up to about $150 or so for the radio. Again, I
would like for it to be able to be carried around in the car without
having a "dolly" to move it.

Thanks, everyone, for your continued comments/suggestions.

C. Crane Radio has always been knwon for their long range AM recpetion.

Check That URL amd you'll see their product line. The one called
"CCRadio-SW" looks exactly like the Kaito/Redsun 2100, but is tagged under
the C Crane name. It should have their trademark long range AM. If I had not
already purchased my Kaito, I would have went for the C Crane. I would bet
it's a real winner all the way around. If you do check it out, or buy one,
be sure and let us know how you like it.

BTW, I dont think you will offend anyone by your taste in who or what you
listen to on the radio.
That's the whole idea isn't it?
