Default SWL Shortwave while on a cruise....?

Subjecting the 2010 to harsh travel conditions and corrosive salt air
sounds like a recipe for disaster..

Imagine how depressed you'll be if it just stops working mid ocean...
or some villanous native snatches it from your stateroom, selling it
for pennies on shore

- Not a pretty thought..

Consider getting a smaller double reduction SWR for the cruise;

the SONY 7600 GR looks pretty good..


( & bring medical supplies like you were living in the slums of
Calcutta )

I am going on a Royal Carribbean cruise soon, and wondered about the
feasibility of bringing along my Sony 2010 shortwave radio.

Is there anything interesting to listen to while at sea in the Carribbean?
(in English?)

Anything on some of the islands?

Should I bother?

Thanks!
