I bought a D-808 a few years ago and I can attest that on MW it is as good or better than every desktop receiver that I own. Not sure about this new version but they got it right for the 808 (which if my memory is correct I purchased from a site in China and the radio was shipped to me from Israel). The only thing that I don’t like is that the radio can’t use regular alkaline batteries - just a rechargeable lithium ion type.
