Interesting article, and there are others. As I recall, Bruce Elving has
sold, and may
still sell the mod kits for various radios. He also has published the FM
Atlas and
Station Directory for a good number of years.

I have two pocket portable radios designed for SCA reception (68 and 92
KHz). Both have regular FM and a switch on the back to go between FMBC and
SCA, with another switch on the front to go between SCA frequencies. Both
are sold widely in the US.
