The Police and SW bands are working now, Mostly Oriental stations and some that sound like Spanish but not quite, I had Bejing International English channel the day before Christmas, and get acouple of religious stations from parts unknown on Police Band.

The metal part is a strengthing rib for the plastic bezal plate, goes inside above the push buttons in a groove.

Really need to figure out how to do an external antenna to pick up more A.M. stations.

Thanks for your reply, everyone is busy this time of year, Family first ya know
