Millions of stores sell analog radios.Some new analog radios are priced
at only a few dollars and some are priced way on up there.Those stores
are selling analog radios every day or else they wouldn't have them in
stock for people to buy.Just imagine if the whole Country switches to
iboc,there would be hell to pay! Some people would be ''getting their
Henikens at the discount stores''.

Absolutely, cuhilin ! There are an estimated 800,000,000 analog radios
in the US, alone, and 70 million sold every year. BTW, I am with you on
analog tuning, now. I just got a few Sony ICF-S10MK2 radios, at $10
including shipping, and I am totally impressed ! I read that you were
not as impressed with the Sony, but for $10, just incredible !
