Shortwave receiver performance of an HT is mediocre at best. HF reception on HTs is intended to serve as a "nice to have" feature and not so much as a serious receiver. HTs are expected to bring in the stronger HF signals in your area and not much more. Many mid-range SW portables priced under US $100 will outperform them, especially with a small reel-up random wire antenna.
From the current SW portables this is my choice for packing light:
Eton Elite Executive Satellite. The best combination of relatively small size, light weight and outstanding shortwave reception. This is one of the very few shortwave portables that can handle a longwire antenna of any length without overloading. It is a portable DX machine for shortwave. US $149.99. Lightly built and a bit fragile, pack it carefully. I would chuck the leather cover for this radio and pack in a lighter padded drawstring bag.
Tis is a great deal! Ordered one myself.
