I currently have a Realistic DX-360.

I live in the Northeast US and I am mostly interested in getting Radio
Canada, Radio Switzerland and Radio France International.

Radio Canada is no sweat. Radio Switzerland: too bad. Am I mistaken,
or does 9580 kHz have French language broadcasting when Radio
Australia is not using that frequency? Is that RFI?

RFI drive-by links:

http://www.rfi.fr/
or, in some other language:
http://www.rfi.fr/fichiers/Langues/rfi_anglais_main.asp

The second site has a schedule of English language broadcasts, mostly
to Africa.

Note the red book on the right hand side of the page. It has schedules
and frequencies in .pdf format. Cliquez ici, si vous plait.

Lastly..has anyone noticed the strong proliferation of evangelistic
religious type radio stations on short wave?

Gosh, no. When did that start, I wonder.

I went to a radio shack today ... the salesman knew nothing [about the Grundig]

Choc!
