cockeyedbob is on a distinguished road
Sony IFC 2010 ... trust Sony to discontinue a winner ... read Eton E1 is just as good ... time will tell.

Played with the Grundig YB ... wasn't impressed but that was in the store.

Check Passport to World Band Radio for recommendations, pro & con, specs, etc ... find a copy at your local B&N or Borders.

Might want one with built in cassette recorder or jack for a recording device ... could come in real handy for those difficult to decipher reports.

e-bay? Well sometime ya find a pony in that pile o' ...

Bought Radio Shack DX-398 8 years ago ... gets a lot of use and it still functions flawlessly ... same radio as Sangean 909 available from C. Crane Co. Don't shoot, just an opinion. My other ssb is an ICOM M802.

Whatever ya buy, use it a lot before ya go ...

Best wishes.
