It is still doing the same thing. I looked all over in there for cold

want to drop $130.00 on this radio as I spent enough just to get it.

The best way to cut your losses is to sell the radio as is to someone
that wants it for spare parts or can fix it. Then use the sales money to
buy a good used one.


Starman,
I took your advice because I'm tired of not having a decent radio. I have
been using a yahct boy 206 and it is a decent little radio. It just doesn't
cut it.
I just grabbed a 7600gr through amazon.
Thanks,
Dave

Good choice on the new radio. You should be able to get at least $100
for the broken SW-77 which will almost cover the cost of the new 7600GR.
If I had a '77', I'd buy yours for parts.
