Good reasonable cost bedside SW receiver?
 

I used to keep up on radio tech but haven't for years.

What is a good reasonable cost bedside receiver for SW
use and maybe even ham, digital, etc?

Prefer a sleep timer as I like to get into bed and
listen to radio with sleep timer on.... but the local
AM/FM programming is crap!

You will have to tune around, change freqeuncies and put up with noise
interference and fading (even with a sync detector).

All of which make SWL'ing fun, but could never make me fall asleep.

Good point

Thanks I will forget abt the idea

Wow. Is battery life an issue? I just heard about a new Crane/Sangean
portable, but it has a little cheese speaker. That and some little
powered speakers might work nice. Can you put up a full-size antenna?

No battery life not an issue... but just didn't think
the review on some of the portable units was very
good....hence maybe the desktop model?

Cant put up an outside antenna.
