I: [A-DX] Suggestion for possible purchases

I am an SWL and I have been listening to international broadcasts since 1990 using various radios such as Sangean Tecsun, Sony. Currently I mainly listen to shortwave broadcasts in Italian (the few that are left), in English and Spanish with the Sangean ATS 909x2 receiver and I must say that I am quite satisfied. I'm looking for a less bulky receiver because when I go on vacation, I would like to take it with me along with my Loop Ga450 and be able to record any program to send listening reports. I don't care about the ham radio band, but I would like the radio to have a USB/LSB band. Meanwhile, browsing the internet, I found 4 Tecsun models that might be suitable for me:

 Tecsun 380,
 Tecsun 330,
Tecsun 880,
 Tecsun 990.

According to your opinion, which one would be good ?

Hi, I have been listening to international broadcasts since 1990 and I have used various radios and I have found them very good. Currently I listen mainly to broadcasts in Italian (the few that are left), in English and Spanish with a Sangean ATS 909x2 receiver, and I must say that I am quite happy with it. I have asked for a possible purchase of a less bulky receiver because when I go on holiday, I would like to take it with me along with my Loop Ga450 and be able to record any programmes so as to send listening reports. I am not interested in the amateur radio band, but I would like the radio to have the USB/LSB band. In the meantime, browsing the Internet, I have found 4 Tecsun models that could be right for me
Tecsun 380
Tecsun 330
Tecsun 880
Tecsun 990

Ciao Dario,

before we can give you any more detailed advice, it would be beneficial
to know what your focus is regarding your reception.

In your initial message you mentioned all bands FM to AM 30MHz and also
USB/LSB.

Are you a FM-Dxer, a casual SWLer or a HamRadio operator wishing to
receive SSB transmissions or all of the above mentioned?

Ralph
