No disputatious diatribe, innate? Yer slippin' as bad as Shrub. Ya coulda at
least elucidated that most shortwave portables have medium wave attenuators
whose effects usually extend into 120 metre band reception. Even with an
outside antenna, Sony's 2010 has a hard time copying west coast a.m.ers on
1.925 mhz during their evening sessions. Barring mods to remove said
attenuators, porta-top & tabletop receivers are better suited for 120 metre
reception, propogation permitting.
