Man On a Mission
I bought the New Tecsun S-2200x for SW and Ham listening which is the update for the Tecsun S-2000 and I also bought 6x Baofeng AR-152 Mil Type HT's along with multiple Antennas to suit the Range required,

The reson behind buying the AR-152's is the huge 12,000mah battery capacity and I have seen people talking up to 80 to 120 miles on them without using a Repeater or I can limit the range down to 500m or 500yards and I can incript them if needed.

The Tecsun S-2200x Radio can pick up stations from well over 8000 miles just using the inbuilt antennas, I have also added a couple oother Antennas to maximse my options when it comes to picking up stations from around the world.

Looks like a neat receiver. Curious how you utilize it. Home office receiver for passive listening? Have it out at camp or while traveling to scan the waves?
I use it around the home and when I go on Road trips and well as use it in my RV Trailer, What makes this one standout apart from it's tuning abilities is that it came with a pair of 18650 batteries and you can also power it from 4x D Cell batteries so in a powerout or off grid you can always stay connected to the outside world.

Another bonus is it has 2 inbuilt Antennas and you can Plug in another 4 Antennas all at once, And it can recieve SW, AM/MW, LW, FM, VHF Air Band and LSB and USB and it can store up to 9150 Frequencies, The AM/MW antenna can be used for direction finding and I also bought a 10" Active Loop Antenna that can be used for direction finding And I also bought the Chelegance JNCRADIO MC-599 Dipole Antenna and Mast/Tripod.

The good thing about this Antenna is that it is easily tuned to suit the frequency and it will work with Ham Radios putting out up to 200w pep. So It can be used for Transmitting or Recieving from the back yard to Mountain Tops.

Using just the Pullup Antenna I have picked up Stations from the US, and the EU and russia and china and countless other countries, It is most likely the best Radio/Reciever on the market without spending over $1500.00++.

I was so impressed with it I bought a 2nd one as backup.
