What Sony unit was mentioned the other day, and what features does it have
I think that it was the 8700. I have to admit I haven't paid that much
attention to the latest with short-wave, but always have made it a point
to have a rig around that will do it, and am thinking of upgrading to a
digital unit, and something smaller that would be easy to pack on a trip.
Now I have a magmount antenna I take that a long to a lot of places, and
something to ground it that takes up room.
