One other advantage to the 909 is the tuning knob.
I'm not crazy about the tuning buttons on my 7600 GR.


That is why I bought the Sangean instead..and a DX 398. The tuning knob
and the fact that the sync detect did nothing on the Sony I tried first.


Myself, I think the Sony 7600GR is way over rated. If I had it to do over
again, I would not have bought it.
The antenna broke off the Sony right after I got it. It's the only portable
I ever bought that happenned to.

My DX-398 is the workhorse of all my portables.
I am thiniking about buying another one, because this one has a lot of hours
on it and it showing some wear.
