Grouchy or not, it's a perfectly good opinion :-) Sure, a lot of radio's can receive AM, including all of the Drake 2-series, 4-series, etc., and comparisons can be drawn between which one of those is better in some sense. But some other radios are MUCH better at AM -- SP-600 variants, most any super pro, R-390 (better than R-390A, but harder to find working well), and many others. The R-388 is also a much better AM radio than the 51J4 (because of those pesky mechanical filter thingies), and won't compress your vertebra quite as much as a 390. In many respects, the R-388 ends up being one of the best of the lot (especially with an external sync detector, or at least outboard audio).
