Hi Shaysdad99,

Looks and interesting little receiver. It should pick up broadcast stations locally and nationally as well as near Europe stations( MW/LW/FM) Air band and Marine band are useful

Its not a state of the art ultra sensitive bit of kit, but it will serve the purpose of gathering information from the outside world.

Probably it is worthwhile firing it up and spending a while carefully listening to the bands with it, noting / marking on its dial, the frequencies of interesting stations.
