As one who loves radio and listens to AM and shortwave almost exclusively, I can say the best signal performance in a non tube radio i.e. transistor portable is definitely found in the shortwave portables. They have the RF performance characteristics not found in your typical Walmart portable radio. A notable exception would be the Tivoli units. I have the iPAL and it is very sensitive on AM. For serious listening I use either my 1937 Philco tombstone, Hallicrafters S-53A or one of my shortwave transistor portables. I have three, Sony 7600GR, Eton E-10 and Kaito 1102.
