I'm curious about what everyone in this newsgroup considers as
their
best shortwave receiver. Mainly I'd like to know if there is a
tendency for using portables vs. so-called desktop receivers. My
best
radio is a Sony ICF SW7600GR, and at this time, I only have
portable
radios.



Best Desktop: AOR 7030+

Also using: Ten-Tec RX-350
Drake SW-2
Yeasu FRG-7
Lowe HF-150
Hammarlund BC-794 (Super Pro)
National NC-88
Hallicrafters S53-A
and others

Best Portable: Panasonic RF-B65

Also using: Grundig Sat 500
Grundig Sat 650 Professional
Grundig Sat 700
Hallicrafters TW-1000
Zenith T/0 3000-1
Zenith T/O 7000-2
and others. Many others.
More than I have room to walkaround.
Please. Help me before I listen again....

You must have a helluva shack, Peter. Can you post
or e-mail a pic sometime? I'm curious how yours looks
like compared to, say, Maghakian's.

It's not that impressive. Lots of radios. Crap stacked floor to
ceiling. I lost the dog in here.

If I ever make sense of it, I'll take a few shots.

But I'll tell you now, that Maghakian's is far more impressive.
