Both my Superadio I's (Though they do not say Superadio on them at all)

My Superadio II is model number 7-2885D

I suspect that the 7-2887 is the SR III which I would avoid along with
its RCA variation.

I got a GE SR III at Ace Hardware, and had to have it modded to get rid
of the bugs. Once it was modded, it was great. Right out of the box, it
was crap. It was only $39, new in the box.

You get the idea. I'm not a radio guy - just want the best AM radio I can get. Can anyone give me the part numbers to look for?

Thanks again.

Just get a Sony ICF-SW7600GR before they are gone.

I was able to pull in a France AM station with this Sony and a Terk AM loop antenna while listening in the Midwest of the U.S.

Just received the srii 7-2880B. Works well. I have to play with it awhile to see if I like it. First impression is good. Nice and clear on the local stations.

Antenna? Long copper wire? Longer the better?

Hah. Sure is an ugly thing when you look at some of radios available today...

Thanks all the info.
