Something else worth considering is a 2nd hand 1970's early 80's transistor radio, many have SW and a few have SSB (single side band), Roberts Hacker etc, a refurbished set anywhere from £20 to £150, however, the quality is hard to beat and they certainly don't make them like they used to.
These guys are worth keeping an eye on;

There's even a refurbed 70's realistic SW receiver for £40;
