The Sony ICF-SW100S has all the features of a full-sized portable, but
is small enough to fit into your shirt pocket. This radio is an
incredible 4.375x1x2.875 inches (111x25x73 mm) 8 oz. Frequency
coverage includes 76-108 MHz FM and complete coverage of long wave,
medium wave and shortwave from from 150 - 29999 kHz continuously. The
PLL quartz frequency digital synthesized tuning is the world's most
accurate drift-free tuning method and makes tuning-in desired stations
simple and precise. The dual-conversion superheterodyne circuitry
provides high sensitivity and interference rejection. A synchronous
detector with selectable sideband is included to help reduce the
effects of adjacent channel interference and fading. The ICF-SW100S
even receives SSB single sideband and morse code signals.

The world time clock feature provides local and 24-city name/time
display. 50 memory station presets allow storage and recall of
frequency and station name at a touch of a button. The auto scan
feature allows scanning of available stations one at a time with a few
seconds pause before resuming or can hold on a specific frequency.
Other features include 1 kHz tuning, dual clock/alarm, LED tuning
indicator, tone control and FM stereo via headphone jack.
