html Yep. I realized that about 10 seconds after I hit the Send button. *Blush* pAny one else got a Radio Shack SW100? pPete Davis pJohn Doty wrote: blockquote TYPE=CITESorry, mine's a Sony ICF-SW100: a completely different radio! pPete & Renee Davis wrote: br Hello John, br br I just received an SW100 last week that I won on ebay. It's in great br shape and I'm really enjoying it. The analog slide rule tuning with br speed and fine tuning knobs are more fun to use for SW and MW band br scanning than the digital buttons on my Degen 1102, even though the br scale on my SW100 seems to be about a 1/4 inch low. The radio itself is br certainly not as portable, but the speaker quality is easier to listen br to than the small Degen speaker, too. br br Looking around on the internet, I haven't been able to locate a whole br lot of information about this radio. I posted a query on the Radio Shack br group list but haven't heard anything yet. If you or anyone else on the br list can answer any of these questions, I'd appreciate your input. br br What are other users' impressions of this radio? br br When were they sold by Radio Shack? br br What were they thinking when they added the "direction finder"? br br Does anyone have or know where I can get a copy of the users manual? br br Has anyone come up with any mods? br br Looking forward to some learning more from the list. br br Pete Davis br br br John Doty wrote: br br starman wrote: br br Hey John, where have you been hiding? br br Moved to Colorado.
