SONY ICW-SW7600 odd model question.
Folks, Picked up a SONY ICW-SW7600 at a second hand store. (serial no. 127694) Alas, apparently I got a model for Saudi Arabia with frequencies blocked in the LW and SW band. It's missing freqs. between 285-520Khz and 26100-29999Khz according to the manual. Also missing is the usb/lsb settings in the AM/AM Fine switch. Otherwise it works well. However, can a MOD open it up and restore usb/lsb capacity? It's my first experience with a SONY radio. Why are LW and SW freqs. blocked for Saudi Arabia anyhow? Thanks for any comments/advice.
