For overall value its still hard to beat a Sony 2010. If portability isnt a
big deal then the Ten Tec RX 320 DSP black box rcvr is a good value. Both are available used on eBay pretty often. Although many disagree, I like the ICOM R 10 handlheld. With a good antenna it gets decent HF SSB and has a voice squelch that quiets the rcvr between SSB transmissions (not to be confused with a a carrier squelch). It also rcvs VHF and UHF. I got mine used for $200. |

I'd leave the 2010 off the list if sideband is a major consideration. 100
htz tuning is way to course. I would'nt want to listen to that long. "BOEING377" wrote in message ... For overall value its still hard to beat a Sony 2010.
