Jeff, If I were making your choice for a new rig I'd try EBAY for a
good used radio. Try a used Sat700 or 2010. You can always sell it
back on EBAY if you don't like it - most likely for the same price if
you take perfect care of it. You'll find the build quality on older
radios is much better IMHO.

Regards

I just bought Grundig's new YB550PE from Universal Radio for the nice price
of only $100 (ex. shipping) and got it shipped to me in just two days. I
plan on using this thing for casual AM/FM listening and some on-the-go
DXing (camping, on a train/bus trip, etc.) and it's been just the thing for
that purpose.

Now I've got my sights on something to replace my old Realistic DX440 which
I did my 'big stuff' with and that looks to be either a Grundig Satellit
800, a Sony ICF-SW77, or a Yaesu FRG-100B. Which one of those would be the
best buy?
