READ - AM/MW DXing = Your Radio + Lazy Susan + Select-A-Tenna
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...a/message/1787

As a stand-a-lone Radio for AM Broadcast Program Listening
the GE Superadios are the low cost performance favorate by
many casual AM/MW DXers.
+ Use a Select-A-Tenna and a Lazy Susan with the GE
Superadios and you can do some reasonable AM/MW
DXing for about $100-$150.
+ Plug a Long Wire (Random Wire)Antenna into the 1/8" Jack
on the Select-A-Tenna Model 541-M and you can generally
'improve' the listenable range of your AM/MW DXing both day
and night.

The GE Superadio III with the Dual 6" and 2" speakers provides
'quality' Mono-Aural Sound for FM Music Program Listeners.
= Nice Sound with Long Term Listenability )

The GE Superadios do not cover the Shortwave Bands and
for that the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE does a good job as a
'portable' AM/FM/Shortwave Radio.
- The Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE as a stand-a-lone radio; does
not perform as well as the GE Superadios for AM/MW DXing.
- The Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE does not have the long term
Listenability of the GE Superadios.

FWIW - Besides the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Grundig-Yacht-Boy-Radios/
consider these 'portable' AM/FM/Shortwave Radios as
Travel Radios for Shortwave Listening:
- Sony ICF-SW7600GR {AM-SYNC}
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/7600GR/
- Sangean ATS-909 / RadioShack DX398 {SSB}
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DX398/

If you are looking for a One-Radio 'compromise' then consider
the Grundig S350 "Super Radio" Tecsun BCL-2000 for both
AM/MW casual DXing and Shortwave Program Listening.
