The question is ambiguous for a reason: to be interesting. You have one vote

Oh, one should 'vote'..... just another troll......
You should do some newsgroup search.
This question is asked every once in a while.

I suppose this is one of the "every once in a while times".

I am not a troll. What are you talking about, you'nuts ?! I am a hobbist,
pretty good in RF electronics and quite fond of my hobby. I built my first
AM radio (7 transistors) when I was 7, for Pete's sake! When did you build
your first? A piece of advice: think before trying to offend somebody.

I suppose you just put some parts of a kit together and surprisingly
enough got it working?
I can't go with this. It took me 16 before I designed(!) and built my
first (and sad enough the only one) SSB-capable radio with single parts
on my own designed and self made PCB. Before that I was into repairing
tube-radios and usualy made one working by plundering another one for
parts. It was not that easy to get enough old tube radios in that
hillbilly area where I lived when I was a kid. This was starting in the
late sixties at the age of 9 or 10 and transistors were quite rare and
expensive. Soldering prepared kits was much too easy so I can't remember
much of them. Although I put some of those kits of different kind
together in that time before I started my own projekt. "No money for
that playing and time waisting stuff" (as I'm the eldest of 7 children)
was a big handicap for me back then. So what's your point?
I started my education and profession as a plumber and heating installer
then and electronics is still *one* of my hobbies more or less since
then wich comes in right handy in certain situations when repairing
failing electronics on heating systems instead of just ordering a new
"module" or at least to get a system to run temporary until the new
module arrives some days later and preventing people sitting in a cold
house.
At least be aware that english is a foreign language to me and I'm out
of school for 29 years right now..... I'm living in Germany, so you may
answer in german? :-)

At least you're posting via a free accessible italian NNTP-hoster.
Maybe that explains something...

Why are busting his balls? First, it's an interesting question that MAY
lead to interesting discussion, if it doesn't break down into immature
flaming. And even if it has come up "every once in a while", new people
join the group all the time and perhaps they would like to see this
discussion.

That said, of course the terms "best" and "portable" are subjective, but in
general most people understand what that means. My votes:

Best absolute performance: Sony ICF-2010
Best for the dollar (as average price on eBay): Sangean ATS-818 or ATS-803a
Best to have in your hands and tune through the bands with: Panasonic
RF-2200
Best desktop receiver that has handles and works on batteries: Sony
ICF-6800WA

Doesn't matter. I still like to see the discussion and learn what other
knowledgable people think.

Dear Sir,

You must have come by now to the truth that the real troll here is you. I
bring to your attention that you are filtered out in my Outlook, so don't
bother posting a reply.

In fact, since you found this thread so unfit, why did you post a reply
anyway ????? But, again, don't bother replying...

Nic.
