Opinions pls: Sony 2010 or Sony SW07
 


I have an 11 year old Sony 2010 that works beautifully and is in great
shape, but I just bought a Sony SW07 at a price I couldn't resist. I only
need one radio so which one do I keep...Is the SW07 equal to the 2010??? I
listen to a lot of shortwave around the house, carry the radio with me from
room to room, don't travel much, and want good quality reception, similar to
or better than the 2010, if that is possible. Is the SW07 advanced enough in
technology to make it worth switching?? Thanks for any thoughts on
this...such a decision :-)

I don't have the SW07 but have the SW100E, and the 2010 synch detector is far better
and the 2010 is far more sensitive. I think the tiny radios are mostly toys that work
okay sort of, if I had to guess.

Today's small radios are probably better. These were great for their time and size.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.

Well, there shouldn't be a *huge* difference...

I'd compare them and keep the one I like better... though maybe you
suddenly do need more than one radio... ;) (Do keep in mind that these
rigs are very different and likewise suited for different tasks.)
