I own a Toshiba model number RP-F11 AM/FM/Shortwave Radio.I remember I
bought it for two dollars at the Goodwill thrift store that used to be
on Palmyra Street in "beautifull" down town (www.devilfinder.com Cool
Buildings of Jackson) Jackson.The radio works ok,but the signal strenght
meter needle thingy doesn't move at all,it wasen't moving when I bought
the radio.I also own a Magnaxox model D1875 11 Band World Receiver
AM/FM/Shortwave radio that I bought for two dollars at the same Goodwill
store and it doesn't have a signal strenght meter at all,but the radio
works ok.Way I see it,signal strenght meters or not,if the radio station
you want to listen to is coming in ok,signal strenght meters are only
iceing on the cake,or something like that.My ears are my signal strenght
meters.
