Here is a radio I would recommend highly. It's designed for "DX" that is, long distance listening, and it includes the shortwave bands which you might enjoy as well. It's not cheap, but it's the right tool.

You can pay more and get more, but if you outgrow this radio by extending your hobby to serious SWL, you will always find it a useful radio for portable use, and if it is enough, you will have a very good radio.
