Default Will I be able to learn the 7600GR?

HJi. My 7600GR has arrived at home and is still in the box. I'm
concerned that its features will be difficult to use and learn
effectively. I have never had a shortwave radio before and have never
used a synch detector nor an attenuator. Are there full instructions
about these features in the owner's manual? I just want to get as many
stations as possible, using the best tuning methods.


I wouldn't worry too much - the instructions will definately help, plus
you have the resources of all these very bright SWLs. Be happy - you
picked an excellent SW receiver, which I bet, not many first-timers do.
Sony rules !


Anyway, I am looking at the box now, still sealed. The radio is
shockingly smaller than I expected. I thought it was going to be the
size of an average Bible, instead, it's as big as a standard envelope.
