I bought it originally for my son who is in the military. When he was
transferred overseas he was not able to take it with him.

I'm curious as to the why of this. Is it something particular to the
theater he's in? The PX sells shortwave radios (Sony ICF-55 and JWin MX 14,
certainly not in the same league as the E1XM) and boom boxes the size of
small cars. I even had a Pioneer boom box that had SW (single band from 5
to 21 MHz) that I bought in the PX when I first moved to Korea.
