I have owned and used a DX398 since 1998. It has just quit working in the
last 3 months, I don't know why. I found the am and fm broadcast receivers
to be great, sensitive and selective. The mw/sw reception was good, too but
only if I used an external antenna. The telescopic whip yielded poor to fair
results, for me. The G3 seems to be a better performer on mw/sw than the
DX398 but doesn't hold a candle to my Eaton E1, which, though problematic,
rocks as a receiver.

I don't know if I'm expecting too much from the Superradio or if it's the
nature of the newer generation of Superradios.

During the day, I use some of the following stations for testing reception.
I don't use my loop unless noted.  All these stations are 70 miles south of
my location.

KSRK, 540 AM, Carmel Valley.  The Superradio had slightly better reception
than my Dx-398

KIDD, 630 AM, Monterey was a different story.  I heard KFRC 610 AM with low
audio.  If I used my Torus loop then I could receive KIDD.
I can pick up this station on my DX-398.

KSCO, 1080 AM, Santa Cruz.  I would either hear the audio from KTCT, 1050 AM
or KFAX, 1100 AM.  I tried using my Torus loop with no luck.  I normally
listen to KNX 1070 at night for the drama hour, KSco Saturday afternoons for
The Golden Age of radio with my Dx-398.

Using my 27 inch Torus loop with the DX-398, I get better selectivity than
the CCradio, Ge Superadio, direct frequency access, great sensitivity!

I've got a genuine GE Super Radio 3, if you're interested, for $30Shipped,
or open to swaps.
The three model is ok, but nowhere near either the 1 or 2 versions.
