I haven't seen a Monitoring Times in quite a while. Used to subscribe, to that and POP COM back in the day. Still have the issues around here somewhere. Picked up a YB400 a year or 2 back at a church rummage sale. It's a pretty good radio. Though for FM I still prefer my Panasonic RF-B60, though it does not do stereo. (nor SSB, for that matter.) Keep your eyes out for a Radio Shack DX-402, it's a similar size and shape as the Yacht Boy, and is also a pretty good radio. I found one in a thrift store for the princely sum of 5 bucks. My money says it was most likely manufactured by Sangean.
If it's new gear you're after, methinks you can sill get gear from MFJ Enterprises, and CCrane as well. I still like to pick up radios when I can, to add to the hoard--er, collection, though I don't do much SW listening these days...

good luck,
--Matt
