Hello All,

Having a blast with my K2/K1 (my only rigs) but there are times I would like
a SWL receiver that is more optimized for program listening. I have a
Grundig 400 for this but would sure like something more akin to the Elecraft
rigs.

I imagine most of you have full coverage transceivers as a back up for this
purpose. Of course I would love it if the Elecraft gang came out with a full
coverage receiver but I don't think this is going to happen. I've been
considering the Palstar R30. I would not want to spend any more than the
cost of the Palstar radio as I am only a casual SWL listener but appreciate
good quality. That's why I chose Elecraft! Any good radios out there that
would compliment the K2/K1 for general coverage? I would really like
something in a package no bigger than the Elecraft rigs. Ten Tec has a cute
kit but I understand the display is a bit noisy if you don't have a coax fed
antenna. 

Thanks,

Steve
