Hi Bob,
Look at the G E Super Radio. It has really good performance on a m and
decent on f m. It is physically a bit big, but should work for you. In my
suburban area noise is a problem on a m but I had the radio out in the
country and there were signals every ten khz.
I also have a Sony 7600 portable - its performance is also very
good. Broadcast through 30 mhz. and the f m broadcast band.
Hope this helps.
