www.devilfinder.com Scorpions and Snakes along Route 66

Not much you can do about them,except try and stay away from them.It
gets cold in desert areas at night and snakes like to find a warm place
to get into.Take a snake bite kit with you.Now,if you was traveling by
horseback,you wouldn't have to worry too much about snakes.You will
probally see some Route 66 reproduction signs for sale in those tourist
traps and stores.One of those signs would look good mounted on a wall in
your home.

Crank away...
P.S. I wasn't referring to speed when I said crank away....

What small rugged model SW would you guys advise for
such a trip?

Don't buy that cheap Chinese-made Grundig piece-of-crap FR200 - if you
read the reviews on eham.net and Amazon, you will see that it has
crappy reception and the crank tends to fall off ! Go Grundig !

Having both of those (sw-07 sw-100) I wouldn't consider either one
"rugged"
by any means.
It wouldn't take much of a drop to rip the folding lid and wires right off
of them...

The smallest and best portable shortwave radios ever made:

The Sony ICF SW-100 is very good but needs the AN-LP1 antenna to perform
well.

Waters & Stanton ships to the US. My orders have been received in as
little
as 1 week.
http://www.wsplc.com/acatalog/Sony_P...Receivers.html (no active
antenna)
http://www.ogormans.co.uk/shortwav1.htm#SONY ICF-SW100 (no active
antenna)
http://www.unitedbuy.com/icfsw100s.html (includes active antenna AN-LP1)

The SW-07 is sweet and includes the automatic AN-LP2 active antenna.

http://www.pmelectronix.com/sony-per...dio-p-708.html
http://www.unitedbuy.com/icfsw07.html

Except for Waters & Stanton I would call these places to confirm item is
in
stock.

Both of these radios are very desireable and have a high resale value.

Yea, Buddy ! Grundig/Eton/Tecsun/Redsun are all very cheap Chinese-made
crap - especially, the Grundig S350 !

www.walgreens.com (Electronics,Radios) If you are going to be
tuning a radio while riding a bicycle,unless you rig a good neckstrap to
the radio,chances are you will drop the radio on the road and it's a
goner.I don't know about the Walgreen's stores in your area,but the
Walgreen's stores in my area almost always has some electronic thingys
on sale and if they have any AM/FM/Shortwave radios on sale,you can buy
one for about one third to about one half price off of the regular store
price.

I wouldn't spend too much on a SW receiver, simply because SWL is on
the decline and DRM is looming of the horizon, which will make your
analog receiver useless. I am in the same dilemma with the possibility
of IBOC being approved for nighttime AM. Actually, I would suggest
getting some magazines and having a good-old-time with yourself in the
tent.

money,I suggest a Sony 7600GR Radio and a very good waterproof cover to
keep it dry.

He'd be much better off waterproofing the tent. That would keep
everything dry, not just the radio :-)

Grundig Mini 300 PE

Well I finally made it to radio Shack to see and hold
the unit above.

Seems pretty well made but I jut don't now abt that
antenna stub sticking up like that. I wonder if it
would be prone to damage since I will be hauling it
around in a bicycle pannier.

Advice ion that antenna stub?

i didnt like the mini 300's antenna stub either. in use it hasnt been an
issue at all. the radio has been used for listening while working
construction and has been very durable. it has been used daily for
almost 10 months. this is a record for me because a radio rarely lasts 4
months on the job site.
