I don't have a Sony ICF-SW1, but I have
an 8 year old Grundig YB-400.
It exhibits none of the symptoms you describe.
Sounds good, works good.


I forgot to say that in FM, it sounds just as good as the SW1 or any other
FM radio. In every other band it's subpar.
I've been reading some older posts here, and it seems as though there was a
bad batch of YB-400s at one point. I guess I got one of those.
