[BITList] more Radios not at sea

I bought it in 86 cant remember how much it cost me but it would have 
been less than $1000 I'm sure, I Like you already had (have) the sony 
icf 2001 & sony icf 7600 sets both of which gave much better performance 
than the Zenith The sony 2000 was just a memory lapse of the correct 
number which now that I have dug it out again I can see the proper 
number when I was using it offshore on a regular basis I was for ever 
blowing it up forgetting to change the supply taps over from 110v to 
250v, I was lucky as the sony agent in Singapore used to fix it in a 
couple of days each time and didn't cost that much either wouldn't fancy 
my chances now though as its almost impossible to get anything repaired 
anymore
