Product Description
The Sony ICF-SW7600GR is a compact, dual conversion, microprocessor-controlled, frequency synthesized general coverage portable receiver. Direct access tuning is provided along with a multifunction LCD digital readout for unsurpassed convenience and accuracy (1 kHz step tuning on longwave, medium wave and shortwave). Just press the numbered keys to match the frequency you want to hear. Manual and automatic scan tuning plus memory scanning is provided. 100 memories are featured for your favorite stations. These memories are non-volatile and therefore will not be lost during the changing of batteries. The ICF-SW7600GR tunes from 150 to 29999 kHz for solid coverage of longwave, medium wave and shortwave. Smooth Single Sideband (SSB) and Morse code reception is available through a switch with separate LSB and USB positions plus fine tuning thumb-wheel. A special Synchronous Detector circuit reduces fading and annoying "beat" frequency interference from adjacent stations as well as distortion due to fading shortwave reception. FM stereo (87.6 - 108 MHz in 50 kHz steps) is provided to the mini stereo headphone jack. A record output jack is included for taping off the air. Advanced features include: dial light, continuously, variable attenuator, 9/10 kHz MW step, "Tune" indicator, keypad lock, 1/5 kHz step tuning, flip-stand, tone switch and external antenna jack. There is also a Sleep function which can be set for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. The side-lit dial light will illuminate the LCD green for 15 seconds when the dial light switch is pressed. This radio has a 24 hour digital quartz clock with dual timer. You can set the radio audio to come on with Timer A and Timer B. The current time is displayed when the radio is off. To view the time while the radio is on simply press the [EXE] key. The time will then display automatically for 9 seconds. Please click here to view left and right sides.
Customer Reviews:
Very Satisfied.......2008-01-07
I was hoping to replace my damaged ICF-SW100E, but, finding that Sony had discontinued that model, I purchased the 7600GR.
It is a larger, heavier, set, but I have to say that I'm very satisfied in almost all respects...better reception, clearer sound from the larger speaker, and an FM stereo line output good enough to record classical music progs to replay on my hi-fi (and I'm very particular!).
The four batteries seem to have a long life (better than the two in the SW100, as you would expect), but I purchased the mains adaptor as well; this is also a solid well-made item.
I'd give 5 stars if the aerial mount was less flimsy...I'd hope that it's stronger than it seems, since, despite being a careful guy, I have a habit of breaking aerials! Sony, please note!
Superior performance and a great price........2006-08-09
Pro: Synchronous detection circuit helps a lot with fading signals. Superior battery life. Radio appears solid and well made. The antenna can be pulled away from the case so it extends at a proper vertical angle, not at an awkward angle like the Eton E5 and other cheaper radios.
Con: Whip antenna connection to case is slightly flimsy. 4 AA cells needed; a bit inconvenient for portable use. The radio weighs approx. 600 grams, and the dimensions are slightly large for a compact receiver. The ICF-SW7600GR does NOT come with a power adapter.
Overall, I love this radio, and highly recommend it. Sony has discontinued the ICF-SW100E, so grab a '7600GR before it's discontinued!
Exceptionally Good for the Price.......2005-06-07
I have this radio for 4 years now, and I must admit this is one of the best purchases I made on Amazon. Reception quality is very good on SW and FM, and presets are just so convenient. Perfect for those learning languages, listening to the news from their home country, travelling to remote spots where FM or digital does not reach (but serves as great FM radio as well). Price is very reasonable, for it's technical parameters this is great value for money. Aerial could be a bit sturdier - well nothing is perfect.
Good radio at moderate price for beginners.......2003-09-19
Good clean silver finish (not aluminium), 102 presets, tone switchable to 'News' and 'Music'. Nothing compared to WorldSpace transmission of BBCAsia, but considering my catching BBC from India via SW, pretty good! 4AA size batteries becomes a little incovenient sometimes, when on the move (2 would be so much more convenient!). Scanning digitally thru the whole SW steps range is a little tedious, and I still haven't figured out how to scan the whole band! Wise back-light and hold button. During daytime, I need to connect to an external antennae to get SW. Comes with a chart of all the frequencies and times of transmission of various stations of the world. All in all, a good thing to start with, to scan the SW world.
