Hi Tom,

Good to have you in the group! I have owned a SONY SW1 for many years. It is a great little radio. I use it with an external tuned ferrite rod antenna. Gary will confirm whether it qualifies as an uldx receiver. Have you ever had a problem with the audio? Failure of two capacitors in the audio section is common in this model, but it is not too difficult to replace them. 73 Michael UK

My name is Tom, SQ5RIX I live in Warsaw, Poland. Radio has been an important facet of my life for more than 40 years. On the ham side, I am a QRP CW and digital op. Currently, one of my radios is the venerable Sony ICF-SW1 - do you think it is eligible for Ultralight? The only caveat: it is quite hard to get these days. 73 Tom
