For the fun of it, I set it to 240VAC and I run it off an outlet like this , similar to Aussie outlets, which I have 240VAC connected to it (a pair of 120VACs, one 180 phase shifted, the usual power company feed in the USA). If you're careful enough, you can modify a 120V parallel plug with a soldering gun, to melt the plastic a little to twist the prongs to angled positions to mate the Aussie style outlet.

I had though of the shortwave bands as a kind of feature list, for owners to brag about "My boombox can get shortwave stations, can yours?".
