Default What radios would you rate high in MW sensitivity per cubic inch?

Here's a slightly different take on the topic of high performance MW
reception... The smaller the radio, the smaller its ferrite bar antenna
will have to be - so, for a given size category, the high performers will be
the radios with low noise, high gain, well designed circuitry. There are
probably a number of very good performers out there; by posing the question
in this way, maybe we can highlight the radios with well designed circuitry
at a variety of different size ranges. (For example, the Degen 1103 might
rate well by this metric since it's both sensitive and compact.) Even the
Sangean SR-1 might rate well just because it works (and is VERY compact).
Any nominations?
Thanks in advance,
Stephen

I'll throw in my Hammarlund 129X with the Heathkit Q Multiplier. It is
amazing on the BCB.

is as good {IMHO} or better that the Sangean DT-200V

Inch for inch, the Sony SRF-M97 has to take the prize, as it's barely
larger than the battery that powers it, and has excellent sensitivity.
