Advice on good desktop SW radio?

Something I find confusing - There seems to be the G6 and the G6 Buzz Aldrin
Edition. Just looking on amazon.com, the G6 without Buzz Aldrin says it
includes longwave 150-500 Khz and SSB. The $70. Buzz Aldrin does not
say that, only lists BC, SW, FM and aviation, but there is a Buzz Aldrin
with a battery charger that says it does include LW and SSB. So are there
two different G6 radios, or is the only difference the name on the case?


I'd avoid any audio gear with a word like "buzz" in the name. Also
"rattle" and "squeak".


Buzz Aldrin shot down 2 MIG-15s . So much for rattle and squeak !

well I went to local Radio Shack and looked at what
they had

only two models from Gundig..... the G8 and the Mini
200

dunno....what abt that mini 200? any good for say
camping biking?

might be that a 200 and a larger unit are in order
rather than midsize buzz aldrin model
