Anyone know where I can get one? It has a special-sized socket that I am
having trouble matching, so I imagine Sony builds an adapter especially
designed for the radio. Amazon doesn't have it, so I'm not sure where to
look...
Any help is appreciated.

Dave,
For "Fixed" Location Radio Listening and Use consider building a
"D" Battery External Power Supply for your Sony ICF-SW7600GR
Radio. Buy the Four (4) "D" Battery Holder at RadioShack or
order-on-line. Get the right size DC Input Plug and wire the Holder
to the Plug. For Normal Everyday Radio Listening : A set of Four
(4) "D"Batteries should last about Six (6) Months or more in the
Sony ICF-SW7600GR Radio.
* Four (4) "D" Battery Holder

* 8-Pack D Enercell® Alkaline Batteries
RadioShack Catalog # 23-880

Leave the Four (4) "AA" Batteries in the Sony ICF-SW7600GR
Radio -and- When the External "D" Battery Pack is plugged into
the Radio the Internal Batterys are Switched--Out-Off.
NOTE - The Sony ICF-SW7600GR Radio normally requires
6 VDC or Four (4) "AA" Batteries.
