I've been using the Ten Tec 320 for about eighty percent of the time in
the last while. There is a Yaesu VR-5000 next to it, but it's really
cumbersome to use with all the buried menu options.

I've been getting more satisfaction out of the Ten Tec.

Next month I'll probably dust off the FRG-7 and think about putting in a
cable for digital readout.

I have been going retro now for awhile. My main receiver is a restored
Lafayette HE-10, another one that gets duty is a restored
Halllicrafters S-38, the portables a Panasonic RF-2200, Realistic
DX-440 and a GE Super Radio III. My main attention nowadays is MW
DXing.

Just being an everyday Shortwave Radio Program Listener
(SWL) my answer would be the Grundig Satellit 800
Millennium Radio because of the Sound, Size and features
like AM-Sync. The Icom IC-R75 Receiver get's play with in
difficult times; but most of my real Listening is on the GS800M.
~ RHF

My favorite receiver is the Drake R8B, but nowadays I use my Lowe 225
(Europa) and Drake SW8 more frequently since I can move those around
more easily.

Icom R-75;

& a 30 foot random wire ;co-ax lead-in.

( Also Sangean 606A & Degen DE1105, both great sets )

I probably use the Ten-Tec RX-350 more than any other when not under comuter
control due to the ease and convenience of the remote keypad. Otherwise
it's draw between the NRD-353Db and the Drake R8A, both mostly under
computer control (lthough I do love spinning that 353D knob).
