"* Excellent & rugged "build" quality"
Well, the SW100S build quality, while very professional, is not something that you can bang around alot... especially with the cover open. Yes, it's probably 3 times the $100 price he's looking for... This is one of the reasons I keep on thinking about something like the Degen DE-1105, which is $60 (incl international shipping on ebay) . I'd miss the syncronous detection I have on my SW100S... I don't use SSB much, so I wouldn't miss that. |

Agreed, the SW100S would fail on the "rugged build" factor, as would
the SW07. Bob will need to prioritize from among these various criteria, since he can't have it all... Before acquiring the SW07, I used to carry a 606A around quite frequently. It's a reasonably priced radio with decent performance, although it's a tad larger (5 3/4 x 3 1/2 x 1 1/4) than what Bob is looking for and, as noted by David, lacking in SSB. |

www.shop.com I saw an AM/FM/Shortwave portable radio there for $731.34
(seven hundred and thirty one dollars and thirty four cents) (for that kind of money,it better! be a d..n good radio) (too rich for my blood) But WAIT!,you save about one hundred and thirty one dollars! Sounds like that coon on tv pedaling that oxyclean (phoney crap!) stuff and you can hear him all the way to the Moon and back. cuhulin |
