Hello Everybody.

As most of you know, the Sony ICF-SW7600GR is one of the best portable
receivers on the market. Frankly, I will never again purchase a radio
without a synchronous selectable sideband circuit which makes
listening to the short waves far more enjoyable than listening without
the circuit and this radio is the least costly receiver with the
feature.

Now it is available at an almost irresistable price: $109.00 plus
$9.00 shipping. (If you live in Illinois or New Jersey, you must pay
sales tax.)

Where can you get it at this price? BENNETT BROTHERS at 1-800-621-2626
or online at

I have three of these receivers (I also have two ICF-SW7600G models);
I wish I needed another!

One great xmas gift at this price, too!

Hope this is of interest to you all.

Best,

Joe

Joe...

Indeed a great receiver... $ 109.00 is a tremendous price. I'm also going
to point out that the 7600gr is a very good receiver for medium wave DX'ing.
As for the ssb selectable am synch... I use my 7600gr all the time for
program listening and that feature is great to have. My primary radio is
the R-75, and at times depending on the signal, I'll prefer to use the
7600gr through my computers sound card and speakers over the R-75 for
program listening because the ssb selectable am sync allows me to cut out IF
coming from above or below. I cant do that with the R-75 unless I go to ssb
and use ecss..

Again.. A great price... I paid $ 135.00 for mine...

Sony's pricing down through the years has always puzzled me. The
7600GR is a great radio AND a great value for the price. Yet the SW77,
which is a much better radio, was not nearly as good a value because
Sony charged an arm and a leg for it.

Maybe this is because Sony faced stiffer competition in the 7600GR
class. With the SW77, Sony probably figured it clearly had the best
advanced portable out there, and so could jack up the price. I think
it is the best in its class, but I wish Sony weren't so greedy.

Then's there's the absurd prices they attach to replacement parts,
particularly the telescopic whips. They don't exactly make the
customer feel loved.
