Hello. I need help from the group. I'm looking to purchase a semi
high end radio and have about $1000 to spend.

Save yourself from spending $1000 on a shortwave radio.

Doing such would be a VERY foolish thing to do.
There is simply **not** a SW radio I know of that is worth that
kind of mobey - period.

Get yourself a Tecsun digital SW and it will do all you
need it to do for under $100. (see links below)
