internet. It's called a Zenith Royal 1000 trans-oceanic from 1958 and it
was a bit pricey, but i bought it anyway and i got it and turned it on
and i was amazed at how much sw stations it can pull! It gets the
stronger stations plus the weaker more exotic stations! And i never saw
a chrome radio before and it's shiny, beautiful and very sturdy. So, i
have been listening to this Royal 1000 shortwave radio for 3 weeks now,
and i'm hooked! Shortwave is very weird and i love it. jacob
