Hi Buddy; Not only would it be heavy but, if it takes (D) or even (C) batteries that would really add to the weight. That's why I don't have (D) batteries in my GE SuperRadio 2. 73 De Anthony W2AJV [log in to unmask] ECHOLINK NODE NUMBER: 74389 ----- Original Message ----- From: Buddy Brannan To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 12:10 AM Subject: Re: [BLIND-HAMS] Sangean receiver with XM module I haven't seen one, but no--it's portable, but it's one of those so-called "portatop" receivers, which is to say, it can be carried (because it has a handle and runs on batteries), but is best left at home (because it's big and relatively heavy). At least, that's what the specs tell me. Kevin would be better able to comment. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV Email: [log in to unmask] or phone 888-75-BUDDY Get a free online mall and earn on 1000 stores: http://www.powermall.us From Kitchen Disaster to Culinary Master, make meals and baking easier and faster: http://www.tastyshop.net
