Re: A relatively cheap portable SW receiver with SSB/CW and analogue tuning?
Remarkable performance can be obtained from several of the Soviet-made portables, especially those with turret tuners which appear on the usual sales sites now and then. The unfortunate thing is, none (AFAIK) have a B.F.O.. You would have to knock one up to resolve C.W. and S.S.B.. Simple enough to do, though.
The DR 22 mentioned by Paul RK is a very good performer, and well-constructed, too. I've worked on them in my job, and would consider one a good find, if there are any for sale. Tony
