Hi All,
I'd like to get into shortwave listening; and the receiver that I'm
looking at is the Sony ICF-2110 or the SW77. Does anyone know anything
about any of those two? Also, are there much music on shortwave; or is it
all news? Is there a FAQ out there? What is AIR-BAND and SSB? Please
e-mail answer.

Thank You,
JB..

Hello, I purchased this radio today (Sony ICF SW77), installed batteries
and nothing comes on. Is there something I am doing wrong? I don't have
a power supply. I can go to radio shack and purchase one if I need to.
Thanks

You just bought a "new" radio, yet you can't afford to start a new
thread?

Jean isn't likely here naymore, virtually nobody from 1995 is. And over
the decades, most posters were only drive by posters anyway, they'd post
one question, and then be gone, sometimes never even posting a response to
the responses to their question. SO there is absolutely no sense in
replying to an almost 20 year old post, especially when it has nothing to
do with that old post.

On the other hand, you really havent' told us anything except what type of
radio it is. You haven't said if you bought it new, or what, or what
"doesnt' work.
