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 at
http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/portable.html or even give them a
call. I travel with the Sony ICF-SW7600GR and it has two timers.

The Sangean PT80 has both sleep, snooze and alarm functions...

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.

I have to watch Marnie movie on Radio tb now.I likes that movie.

Any of the Kaitos would work like the 1103, 1102, 1101, etc...

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