Sony's wall wart for this series is excessively noisy according to Passport To World Band Radio (I think they suggest an alternative). This book has got a good section of receiver reviews (which I used to pick my set). It also contains a sort of station time and frequency guide, and SW related articles. It is an annual publication BTW.
I seem to recall that some where my model has been tested to have a 76 hour (continuous operation) battery life. I couldn't comment on any SS Transoceanics as I've only seen them and never owned one. But I'd imagine that if cheap Asian junk (and the political dummies that let it in the door) had not all but killed the American consumer Electronics industry, the current gen Transoceanics (not to mention the rest of their line) would have been most impressive indeed.
