BEST PORTABLE RADIOS FOR MW DX

1. Sony ICF-2010 --- Still the one. After years of production, the
2010 still sits atop the mountain of MW DX portables. Unmatched in
features and performance important to MW DXers. In dozens of
side-by-side tests with numerous portables, the 2010 always comes out
smiling. Filter options and mods available are a plus.

2. C. Crane CCRadio --- Usually a close second to the 2010 in
side-by-side tests of sensitivity (some users report equal or better
sensitivity than the 2010). Selectivity quite good for domestic (i.e.,
10 kHz spacing) DX; needs a filter mod for split-frequency DX. Doesn't
have the sometimes helpful features of the 2010 (e.g., synchro; ECSS).
There is apparently some variability in samples (common among portables)
that result in differences of opinion regarding this radio. Still, of
the three I've seen, all performed extremely well, especially after
alignment. Early reports of the new CCRadio Plus suggest that it may be
better than the original.

3. Panasonic RF-2200 --- This discontinued, 1970's era analog radio
remains a marvel of engineering. From its raw sensitivity on MW to its
rotating "gyro" AM antenna to its two selectivity bandwidths, the RF-2200
is one of my favorites for MW DX. The only analog portable I've ever
seen that gives 10 kHz read-out on MW (except for the Barlow-Wadley
XCR-30 (which isn't very good on MW)). Audio is also very pleasing.
Note that MW band coverage stops at 1600 kHz.

4. GE Superadio I or II --- The first two of the popular Superadio
series and easily the best. Excellent construction quality with separate
circuit boards for different stages, a high-quality variable capacitor
(vice tuning diodes), etc. Superb sensitivity on MW and excellent
selectivity for domestic DX. Coverage stops at 1600 kHz though and dial
read-out is coarse. Best audio of any portable. Long discontinued.

Excellent condition. Very clean. Works perfectly. Well known as the best
of the Superadio series for MW DXing.

Price is $75.00 shipped in CONUS....
