Hi to all.

Does anyone know if General Electric has some sort of repair facility for
the GE Super Radios.  Mine has become deaf as a stone.  Even during the
nightime it doesn't hear anything except strong local signals.  I think it
may be part of the damage from the lightning strike.  I typically don't do
any medium wave DXing in the summertime when the lightning crashes are
prevealent, so I just noticed the lack of sensitivity tonight.  I strongly
suspect that either something happened to the RF amplifier, or the ferrite
rod antenna as a result of the lightning blast.  The radio was sitting on a
shelf about 10 feet from the antenna cables that got cooked by the
lightning stroke.  If I could still buy the Super Radio 2, I would replace
it in a heartbeat.
