I do! I do! Or I should say I used to do a lot of Shortwave listening. Back when there were a lot of international broadcasters - before they shut most of them down and went to the internet. I still do DXing, but it's with my ham radio.

Great to see the Sony radio along with your excellent disassembly photos.

The 7600 series was a best seller. Over the years I've had the original ICF-7600 Analog, ICF-7600D (ICF-2002 in North America) and the ICF-SW7600GR.

My favorite Sony radio was the ICF-2010. A little bigger, but a great radio.

A few years ago, I decided to go back to "old school and picked up a couple of Panasonic RF-2200 Analog radios. These are about the size of a lunch box, and have great receivers for their day.
