Somebody gave me one of these a few years ago that he picked up at a flea 
market for  less than $5.  It's seen better days, but still plays quite 
well.  One of the later Trans-oceani'sc from the '70's.  11 bands including 
AM, FM, longwave, 1 VHF band that covers  the weather band  and a little 
more, and 7 shortwave bands that  go up to somewhere around 22 mhz.

Has knobs for volume, tone, rf gain, and b.f.o.   Also a switch for 
wide/narrow bandwidth.    The fm drifts a little, but what do you want for 
nothing?

Don't use it often, but have it set up with power poles on a piece of zip 
cord to the battery compartment so I could  run off the big  battery in case 
of  power outage.

73, Steve KW3A
