Sharp FV-1710 Shortwave Radio
10/18/1997 3:32:13 PMVJB
COOL RADIO! Got it for $2 at a hamfest. Need schematic. It's all metal, probably about 1968 vintage, all solid-state, with LW, BC, SW1, SW2 and SW3 covering from longwave through about 24 MC continuous. Oh yeah, it also has FM but who cares. Most interestingly, it has a "diode" output that, when feed to an external audio amp (like home stereo) gives amazing fidelity to the hi-fi hams running AM on shortwave. Anyone have some experience with this model, or some history, anecdotes, and maybe technical information? Many tnx. Post here.

Is it in good condition or is it a bit damaged?
