Thanks!

Several years ago I bought a GE Super Radio from our local K-Mart. (I
don't remember if it is II or III) for about $50. I don't know if they
still carry it or not. Interestingly enough just a few weeks ago I saw
one in our local Radio Shack. I didn't check the price, but I did
notice that it no longer bore the GE trademark/logo. Apparently some
other company had its logo on it - I didn't check exactly what it was.
But the radio was definintely a Super Radio. Hope this helps. (I love
mine. Batteries seem to last forever, and reception is terrific.)

Superadio III now bears the RCA logo (IIRC, both GE and RCA consumer
electronics are both owned by Thomson Consumer Group of France (built of
course in China). This could have changed yet again by now.

expectations?

The replacement E1 is indeed performing quite well. I'm really surprised at
how well the AM/MW performs without a directional antenna.

I, too am thinking of picking up the twin coil ferrite from CCrane to use
out in my shop, which is a steel container that makes a wonderful Faraday
cage. I figure if I mount the antenna on top of the shop, attached to a
pan/tilt setup to use as a rotator, all mounted under a plastic bowl to keep
the rain off, it should make almost an ideal setup for not only DX but just
everyday program listening (so I can hear more than one station without 20dB
over S-9 noise level..
