I think you're comparing apples and oranges. Not that
ham operators wouldn't find the receiver useful, but its
primary market is shortwave listeners, not hams. What's
important to hams probably doesn't matter to SWL's,
and vice versa.

A more reasonable comparison would be to the Drake
R8B ($1379), the AOR AR-7030 ($1469.95), the JRC
NRD-545 ($1799.95), etc.

The Drake price is from the Drake web site, all others
are from the Universal Radio web site, and you'll notice
all these receivers are MORE expensive than the RX-350.

73,
