Default Portable or tabletop in this application?

The problem with using a portable is you can't see the radio controls.
The form factor is wrong. [Knobs all over the place, rather than the
controls on the faceplate.] There are a few DC to daylight scanners
that do have shortwave. Another idea is to get a ham radio that has
continuous coverage. The advantage to using the ham radio is you can
get decent filters for sideband use, something the DC to daylight
radios often lack.

or something like this (yaesu has a similar model)

BTW, that Bush statement on human-animal hybrids was code-word speaking
to his bible thumper base.
Ya think?

Feed the insanity.
