The Drake 2B has a wide selectivity figure of 3.6 KC....the R4-A-B series has a wider selectivity, 4.8 KC and works very well for me on AM, the R4C has separate filters and you can buy them for even wider I believe...however, I like the R4-A-B series somewhat better, I believe the fidelity is better and the filters are just right ....good luck..

A friend of mine is regressing (or progressing) back into AM and wants a
small footprint high quality AM receiver. He tried the Drake 2B and claims it is a
bit too narrow bandwidth wise for good AM fidelity. Are there any of say the
R-series that may have a bit better audio on AM? I had passed along
information that with AM a weak and fading signal will have an affect on the audio so a
GOOD antenna is necessary too. Thanks
