Sony ICF-SW77 LW /MW /SW/ FM/ Single Sideband/ SSB!
Sony's TOP of the line FLAGSHIP Receiver!

This is a Sony world band receiver, it has everything, very hard to tell
from new, has small ding bottom of case, it can hardly be seen. Cost over
$600.00 new, it is two years old. In original Sony Box with original
packing.

The Sony ICF-SW77 offers sophistication not previously seen in portable or
table top receivers. On the performance side of the equation, this radio
offers several useful circuits. A built-in programmable RF tuning unit
allows the set to track a signal from the time the antenna first picks it
up, while cutting out other signals. This reduces interference. The SW77
incorporates a band pass filter that splits each band into five smaller
bands, thus virtually eliminating interference from outside the band. Fifty
Hertz tuning resolution permits precise signal tuning for maximum clarity
(LCD resolution is 100 Hz). The advanced synchronous detection circuit
effectively addresses the two biggest problems on shortwave: fading and
interference from adjacent stations.
The SW77 is also rich in features. Station Name Tuning is now a reality. 162
memories are available to store your favorite stations including: frequency,
name (to six characters) and program times. Sony has preset 94 of these
memory channels with the world's most popular SW stations. (You can
over-write these factory-set memories). You select the station name and the
radio will provide the best frequency based on the current time! The SW77
also includes all the expected features: excellent AM & FM bands, keypad
entry, dial lamp switch, bass, treble, LSB/USB, ext. antenna jack, dial
lock, S-Meter, sensitivity switch (Local/Normal/DX), manual tuning knob,
frequency scanning, dual clocks, etc. You may even adjust the LCD contrast.
A sophisticated 5 event timer lets you program the radio to come on at
specific times, for a specific time interval on a specific frequency. These
timer controls are on the top of the radio. There is a 3.5mm Line Output for
a mono tape recorder plus a Tape Remote jack that can be used for tape
recorder activation. (For stereo tape recording you must use the stereo
earphone jack).

Inside the battery compartment on the back panel there is a switch to select
9 or 10 kHz medium wave steps. Despite its advanced and many features, the
SW77 provides a friendly "interface" between the listener and radio.
