My Sony ICF-SW7600GR Radio's AM-Sync works very
well for my Program Listening needs.

But you are right the Lack of a Tuning Knob is a draw
back of the Sony ICF-SW7600GR Radio : So with it I
use the 100 Memories more then with other Radios;
and the 5 kHz Frequency Step for the Shortwave Bands
gets me from one Broadcast Program Frequency to
another with easy.
