Can anyone give me opionions as to which one is the best true portable

Please consider the size no bigger than the ATS909 (No S350)

In order of importance please consider these:
1.-Sensitivity
2.-Selectivity
3.-Must have a tuning knob
4.-Sound (must have internal speaker)
5.-Memories


SONY 2010

Have fun.


Uh..... I did read it.

Checked the Universal site, it does - so I'm not sure what CW was
getting at.

The first requirement that he listed, size.

Since when did they add PLL to a Super Radio?

I think the Super Radios are good choice. Most dedicated SW rigs have
attenuation that is present across the AM broadcast band which
substantially lowers the sensitivity.

Yea, he's talking about the new digital Super Radio IV. :-))

Dah! I should have read it better. I was just thinking of a good MW
receiver. Sorry CW!

Yea...Right.

Good radio though, if he can live without the digital aspect.

Well, your size preference kind of limits your options. If you're willing to go
a bit bigger, the Sony 2010 wins hands down. Otherwise, the Sony ICF-7600 is
pretty good on MW. Sony's AM synchronous detector really helps the selectivity.

Although not a "true" portable (no built-in ferrite rod antenna) the Palstar
R30 fits your size category, can operate off of internal batteries, and is a
fantastic MW radio, better than the Sony 2010.

Right now, I have the synthesizer and the loop amplifier/tuning circuit
captured into Protel DXP. I still need to do the Rx section and the Sync
Detector. A couple days more work.............then the fun stuff begins.

Do you get much flak from the bean counters about trimming costs in the
design? This seems to be one of the major reasons that some great
receivers don't make it to market.
