Best digital PLL MW radio receiver?
 
Can anyone give me opionions as to which one is the best true portable
PLL synthesized DIGITAL radio receiver for listening to MW(AM)?

Please consider the size no bigger than the ATS909 (No S350)

In order of importance please consider these:
1.-Sensitivity
2.-Selectivity
3.-Must have a tuning knob
4.-Sound (must have internal speaker)
5.-Memories

Checked the Universal site, it does - so I'm not sure what CW was
getting at.

I was at Big Lots in Greenville, SC yesterday. The stock clerk rolled
out a pallet of 2010's and set it down in a back corner of the store.
Hung a price tag that said $29.95 each and walked away.

Then I woke up.

What a dream.

I think the Super Radios are good choice. Most dedicated SW rigs have
attenuation that is present across the AM broadcast band which
substantially lowers the sensitivity.

Thanks for the endorsement Gregg! I think this unit will be a desk top unit
though.
Right now, I have the synthesizer and the loop amplifier/tuning circuit
captured into Protel DXP. I still need to do the Rx section and the Sync
Detector. A couple days more work.............then the fun stuff begins.
