I've got a Grundig S350, which isn't half bad, but leaves a bit to be desired - if I did it over again, I'd definitely pay an extra $50 for a better radio like the ones in the OP. Digital tuning is the way to go (although analog with a digital frequency display is tolerable), and SSB is a nice feature to have as well. Honestly, given the reception around here, I use it more as just a portable AM/FM radio (it has drat nice sound quality for something its size).

Keep in mind that in much of the US, you're going to need a decent external antenna if you want to get much of anything besides Radio Havana and a pile of religious stations, especially if your geographical location is poo poo or if there's a lot of RF noise in your area (yay large city situated in a valley:bang: ).
