The "best" bang for your buck = Sony ICF-SW7600GR
SSB on this portable is superb! Excellent sensitivity and ergonomics. Would it be good in California? I'm mostly interested in listineng to aeronautical, government, military, and shortwave phone feeders (are there any countries that still use them?). Would this or a Sangean ATS 909 be better for it? |

Agree with tianli.
The 7600GR does a super job receiving SSB. Sideband is not a strength of the YB-400 tianli wrote: The "best" bang for your buck = Sony ICF-SW7600GR SSB on this portable is superb! Excellent sensitivity and ergonomics. |

I concur. Plus, the 7600 has an AM sideband-selectable sync detector,
making it outstanding for broadcast stations (BBC, Dwelle, etc.). Among others, I own the YB 400 and Sony 7600. The RS DX-398/Sangean 909 is much better than the YB400 for sideband, but it doesn't have a sync detector. Bucky wavetrapper wrote: Agree with tianli. The 7600GR does a super job receiving SSB.
