To Bert in Watkinsville, GA: (and others)
There is no digital version of the SRF-59. However, Sony does make the
SRF-M37V, a digital 9/10 kHz split-capable $35 radio (Amazon) that has been
used here in Washington state for TP reception, both by myself, and Dennis
Vroom of Vancouver. Unfortunately, it does have somewhat of a selectivity issue
(as detailed in the Ultralight AM-DX Shootout Review on dxer.ca), and has
nowhere near the SRF-59's selectivity or nulling ability.
If your interest is purely domestic DX, the Sangean DT-200VX would make
a great pocket-radio choice, as detailed in the review. Or, if you would
like a digital pocket radio that can do everything well, you may wish to wait
for the full review of Sony's Japanese-market SRF-T615, a highly touted
made-in-Japan $89 wonder that will be one of the contestants in the upcoming 2008
Shootout.
73 and Best Wishes,
Gary
