Shortwave newbie..

Hello, lately I've been looking around on the web for information on shortwave. I'm new to shortwave and looking to find a good reciever, however being a college student I'm on a budget. I'm more looking for something portable but, really the major factor is price. What are some good brands/models in the sub $100 or $150 dollar range? Or generally where/what should I look for in a good radio? Thanks in advance.. The best sub $100.00 radio is the Degen DE - 1102, no other radio comes close. If you can spend about $150.00 the Sony 7600GR is the one to pick. I own the following radios: DE 1102 YB550 YB500 YB400 YB300 Grundig Mini200 Tecsun R-919 Saegan 909 Sony SW100 DX399 - a very nice small portable Sony 7600GR and a host of small lesser known radios. Tabletop radios Kenwood R-5000 Kenwood R-600 Kenwoor R-1000 Drake R8B Hallicrafters SX-28 Hallicrafters SX-100 Hallicrafters S-40B plus 60+ radios from the 20's to the 30's I know, it a sickness ( according to my wife and children ) |
