Can anyone recomment a modern decently-priced reasonably-sensitive SW

reciever? The Lafayette will pick up FM and AM stations that my modern

boom-boxes and clock radios won't. I'd settle for a radio that would just

reliably pick up faint AM and FM standard broadcast stations.

Sony icf-sw7600xx series are decent portables . Quite sensitive on all bands, even without an external antenna. Check with Universal Radio in Ohio - occasionally they have good used products like Zenith T/O. And lots more of the new stuff.
