...If you want to listen to shortwave, skip these two and get something with a digital phase locked tuner. $.02
On that note... What do you recommend for a radio (primarily for SW), but that can get am/fm; but is very portable. I was looking into the ICOM r5 with a couple antena's to get what I need, but if something smaller exists (with less bells, whistles and bands), i'd be really interested. Any ideas?
I'm a noob when it comes to radios, so be kind ;-)
