Thanks, Dan.

I'd really like to hear an objective observation from someone that has both (or any combination). I don't have a 2010 (or any Sony radio), but everything I've read says that the 800's sync is at least as good as the 2010's, if not better. It locks solidy, it doesn't rumble during lock and it doesn't drift or lose sync once it gets it. My 800's sync is better than my R8's sync. In fact, I haven't used my R8 since I got the 800. Note that my R8 is the original model, which does not have selectable sideband sync. It's double sideband only. I had planned to buy a Grundig Sat800 this month, but with Sony ditching high-end shortwave portables, I wonder if I shouldn't grab a SW77 while I can still get one "brand new." Not a bad idea.
