Default Sony car shortwave radio?

G'day,
Sorry, I'm not near the vehicles, however from memory I believe
RHF's post was fairly accurate if not pretty dam close:

Coverage would be the same for all :
SW1 : 2,940 - 7,735 kHz = 120m, 90m, 75m, 60m, 49m, 41m
SW2 : 9,500 - 18,135 kHz = 31m, 25m, 22m, 19m, 16m
Except for SW2 the Frequency Range : 10,140 - 11,575 kHz
is not covered by these Radios.


As if I remember correctly I can't quiet tune in ABC Alice Springs which
is 2310 khz. But I've tune 4, 5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17 mhz Shortwave
stations Even heard the ham operators on 14 mhz but obviously it
hasn't got SSB

Regards
Mark

Well the wifes radio finally died in her Suzuki ~2 months back, so we
went to the local auto shop (Supercheap) and too my surprise there was
the Sony CDX-GT160 SW/AM/FM radio.


Could you cue us in as to the band(s) covered on SW?
