He Sony ICF-SW55 is a great sounding portable with a real quality feel and a huge LCD display. Shortwave coverage is complete from 1.6-30 MHz with 1 kHz readout. (194x127x39mm 900g).
Excellent on all levels!!!!
Adel does an excellent job and has upgraded almost all of the radios in my Sony portable collection including my SW77, my SW55, and my SW100. I will also be sending him my SW1 and my SW2010. Many of these radios have already been upgraded by Kiwa-and, make no mistake, Kiwa did an excellent job. However, as a former Sony tech based in Cairo, Adel uses non-leaking polymer capacitors made in Japan . He also does LED upgrades as well as memory retention upgrades. Adel is VERY responsive and an absolute pleasure to work with. Very HIGHLY recommended.
