Tonight I was listening to KMOX 1120 AM in St. Louis, MO. I was listening to the Cardinals playing the Milwaukee Brewers. I was listening with just the built in antenna of the radio to a station hundreds of miles away, with mountains in between. There was some fading, not to the point where the station was unintelligible, and, for the most part loud and clear. Earlier I had tuned up and down the dial, and found dozens of stations, probably more than 30 coming in clear. What a great radio ! On other nights I have had similar performance listening to shortwave as well as broadcast band, and with FM, the performance is even good through the day. The 48-482 was truly a beautiful design, both aesthetically, and from an engineering standpoint.
