Hi,
With the recent Radio Australia leaving the shortwave band and others who had as well, why are SW receivers still pricey? I'm referring to those portables that cost between $100 - $300 and table top models that are well over $400 or more.
Don't get me wrong. I love SWL. And I would love to get a tabletop model if the price can come down that I can afford. I can only afford those cheap $50 bucks SW radios which aren't that great.
- cheers
