I'm thinking about possibly getting the Icom R20 sometime in the future,
but
before I decide, I was wondering if it picks up good or not on longwave
radio?
And on the AM broadcast band? And on the shortwave bands?

I can't afford anything expensive. My limit is definitely under $500.
maybe
even lower.

or is there a better radio for longwave and shortwave for that price or
under
that price that has digital frequency readout and SSB capability?

And I was also wondering, are there any longwave radios for regular hobby
listening that actually go all the way down to 10 khz? with digital
frequency
readout.


No, no and no.

The best you can do with your constraints is R75, AFAIK.
