When I had mine, the biggest problem I had with it (the AC adapter) was that
on shortwave, it made the automatic band scanner stop at every single step
interval. You can imagine how frustrating it would be to scan the bands like
that. I don't know if there was something special about the lines in my
house, but, for SW, I always used the radio just on batteries.

I just got my 7600gr, I was thinking of getting the Sony mains adapter
for
it, but have read a few posts stating that these cause a hum/buzz on
SW,lw,mw, is this the case?, do you think I would be better off just using
batteries.
thanks
