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.
