Hi:

Recently got an ICF-SW7600GR. Wanted to be able to listen to HAM
stuff, but no luck so far. I am in downtown Toronto if that makes a
difference. I have tried scanning on SSB - USB, but I don't seem to
be able to find anything - whenever I think I've found something, it
ends up being a regular station (I switch back to regular mode and
it's there it is another normal station.) I have been able to get
some morse code like sounds but that's not what I am looking for...

Any tips, ideas, or frequencies to try in the Toronto area. I am just
getting frustrated with the whole thing and was thinking about just
taking the radio back today...
