Yeah well, there's a reason why some credits aren't transferable. That
many of yours weren't is not surprising, given your conduct here.


Credits are transferrable among colleges and universities that share a
common accreditation board or standard. The places I studied, outside the
US, are not members of these boards. The credits are valid towards a degree
in PR or Ecuador, but few, if any, colleges in the US would have accepted
them in the early 70's.

I do NOT own a TV

So radio is my cheap home entertainment

Does there exist any decent SW based clock radios to
keep near my bed at night to listen to SW programs
while going to sleep and upon wakening?

Any number of the SW portables have time-based "turn on" and can be used as
an alarm clock. I have never had one that turned off by itself, though. I
think there are enough users of these receivers that someone might recommend
one that combines good reception with the features you want.

Universal has a wide range of portables and you might look athttp://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/portable.htmloreven give them a
call. I travel with the Sony ICF-SW7600GR and it has two timers.

You lied about your education, so why should be believe you when you
say you travel with a 7600GR?- Hide quoted text -

The 7600gr that you use will turn itself off. Just use the sleep
button right next to the power button.

And both timers can be set to turn on to specific radio stations. But
I find that the alarm is much better for waking me up.

For a clock radio to be useful on the shortwave bands it really should
be able to point to a channel in memory because shortwave stations do
not broadcast on the same frequency all day long.

The Sony 2010 and Eton E1 both can be set to turn on and off
automatically using memory channels.
