Newbie ask advices for shortwave "sailing" radio
If you're using it on the water a lot, especially SALT water, you might
want to consider how you'll keep the moisture out. I'd probably check at some place that specializes in marine radios. They can probably recommend a shortwave radio especially designed for that use.

I am looking for a SW receiver for my sailing boat for meteo forecastings and warning... and World radio for fun I am sailing in Mediterranean sea and Atlantique. I'd prefer a portable radio. I own for twelve years a Sony icf sw 7600 with 5 KHtz tuning resolution and it is not a precise tuning. I am waiting with a huge interest your advices. Many thanks Dom |

Is there much weather information available for sailing these days ?
I've checked the web for frequencies around Gulf of Thailand and to date haven't been successful. Most information is caught of the satellites, which isn't good if you are travelling light.
