With that advice and a 7600, he will be able to get everything out there.
All at the same time, no matter where it is tuned.

Now get a few hundred feet of that wire and run it around your entire back
yard as high as you can get it. You will again notice better reception!

Took delivery of a Sony 7600 GR yesterday and am now experimenting
with external antennas. I purchased the Radio Shack kit but haven't
installed it yet (BTW, it's now just $4.99). Right now I've got 20
feet of speaker wire soldered to a plug that goes into the external
antenna jack. Anyway the wire goes out the bottom of a window and
attaches to a wood fence. When the radio is not in use I unplug the
wire. I guess I'm concerned about the wire that's inside my listening
room....it's not attached to anything but is it a lightening magnet in
the event of a storm? Could I get an electrical discharge inside my
house from the 20 feet of wire that is stretched outside? Very
obviously, I know next to nothing regarding electricity, though I have
learned to use the solder iron effectively :-) BTW, from my
experimentation so far, this simple stretched speaker wire is a
noticeable improvement over the whip/reel antenna you get with the
unit.
