Hi Karl (and Mike),

The current top Ultralight models can pretty much run circles around the pocket radios that were top of the line 7 years ago. There have been significant improvements in both MW sensitivity and DSP filtering.

A thorough review of the Ultralight radio market was done a couple years back, and the conclusions in that article still are valid for the top performing models https://swling.com/blog/2015/03/gary-debocks-2015-ultralight-radio-shootout-review/

Gary DeBock, acclaimed innovator in the realm of Ultralight DXing, has recently completed a exhaustive comparison of five popular Ultralight radios: the C.Crane CC ...


Both the C.Crane Skywave and the Eton Traveler III have strong advantages, while the Tecsun PL-310ET is a bargain favorite (with a few rough spots). The Tecsun PL-380 also still has a strong following, especially among those who are hooked on transoceanic DX (the ultimate challenge for a pocket radio). Japanese DXers seem to have an insatiable demand for 7.5" loopstick models of both the PL-380 and CC Skywave, and have recently designed their own domestic versions for "ultimate thrill" transoceanic DXing.
