SW radios are at nearly every electronics and gadget store.
Frys in the West has many; Sharper Image, Hammacher-Schlemmer,
etc., have them, too. Have even seen the multi-band one at Bed,
Bath and Beyond in an emergency-preparedness all-band, crank to
power radio.


You are very correct. I couldn't contain my curiosity. Went to a
nearby Electronics Store. Then had a half a shelf full of SW
Radios. I was not looking in the right places before. I asked the
employee and he said that SW Radios are still popular but not as
much as before.

There were some nice Grundigs priced around $120 Canadian !! This
is very good to know for the future.
