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.


The Winradio G313e by far. No other receiver comes close, not even JRC
NRD, not even AR7030.

The only receiver that comes close is Winradio G303e. I bought the
G313e after using the G303e for almost 2 years and never regretted it.

If you have not heard about them, see the latest WRTH review. Here are
the technical detals:

Hope this helps.
