[CQ-Contest] receiver recommendation for SWL neighbor

[Jeff Blaine]

I have a neighbor about 700' distant who favors SWL broadcasts for his 
news and entertainment.  To keep peace in the neighborhood I am 
considering buying the fellow a better SWR receiver as that may be the 
least painful way of resolving this issue.

He's got what is similar to the Tecsun type of hand-held portable radios 
now and uses that with the attached whip antenna.  I'm wondering if 
there is a similar type of portable radio that has a serious 1st mixer 
and roofing filter combo in a small package.  I really know nothing 
about the general coverage receiver offerings.

Appreciate any advice...
