Another couple of choices if you're not afraid of "old" would be Sony's CRF-150, 160, 230 or 330 models, or Panasonic's RF-3000, 5000, & 9000 models. They were the respective "flagships" of 2 very big & proud Japanese electronics firms, had all the bells & whistles Sony & Matsushita could cram in 'em, & had very good performance. Only problem is that w/these sets, you tend to start to butt up against the collector "nuts" who want one of these things for what they are, rather than for what they'll do, & run up the prices on 'em.
