I've got the Palstar R30, Yaesu FRG100, AOR7030, Drake SW8, and Icom R75.
They're all pretty decent receivers. The R30 has the best sounding audio,
followed by the 7030, the SW8, and the R75.
Sensitivity wise, the FRG100 is the best, closely followed by the R75, the
7030, the R30, and the SW8.
Ergonomically, the SW8 is my favorite..............looking inside of the
unit, I can see that it was an expensive design. Internal construction is on
a par with the R30. If you asked me which one was my favorite, I would have
to say "all of them!"
My best performing commercial receiver is my Racal 6790/GM, but that thing
is HUGE at 22 inches deep, so it doesn't get too much use on my nightstand.
My favorite portable is the Grundig 210. They just don't make them with that
turret type of bandswitch anymore. That's not to say that the new ones
aren't any good. They are very good.

$360 for a used 2010 try again - a lot less than that. Check out
Ebay and you'll see. The price point is below 3 bills ...
