I recently aquired a ICF - 7600 7 band analog receiver and can't seem
to find service data or anything else on it. All I find is stuff about
a digital ICF-7600.

Technically, it's the Sony 7600A. It was the low-tech receiver of choice for
foreign journalists in the late '70s. Excellent FM capabilities for a Sony.

I don't have any of the service manuals, but I'm looking at one right now. Is
there any specific question I might be able to answer?

(Which, btw, would be either the ICF-SW7600, ICF-7600D or ICF-7600DS.)

No. The "A" was a dual conversion rig, the original ICF-7600 is a single
conversion receiver.

It was the low-tech receiver of choice for
foreign journalists in the late '70s.

This would rather fit the older model, the ICF-7600A only came out a few
years later, in the early 80s. (The information I have says 1983, but
this seems a bit late.)

One for me perhaps . Can you see how many IF filters the thing uses
for AM and FM, and possibly on what IF/which type?

Stephan (maybe one day I'll be able to get an ICF-7600A/AW for less than
20 EUR...)
