congrats sandy on the arrival of the sx62 and that it made it in one (bigg)piece

betcha didnt realize how big it was until you unpacked it huh?you gotta love the size of that easy to read dial.i think now you have to find the matching tv to go with it (yes they did make a tv that matched it)and you'll be all set.
johnda,
sorry to hear about your sx 100 troubles and that's the reason i move all my audio and shortwave gear myself as i dont trust anyone but myself to haul that gear around.the sx100 's are nice radios even if you can fry eggs on the case after theyve been on for awhile.they're all notoriuos for running hot and should never be left alone.i had 2 of them and on the one i left on and fell asleep with burnt the power transformer up in the middle of the night.(not a pretty smell)anyways hope you can get yours up and running again and if you need a manual for it just send me a pm and ill make you a copy.
