I just got this radio yesterday and I'm loving it so far! It took me about 30 minutes to figure out (the manual isn't so great) and I know nothing about SW. I would highly recommend this radio to a beginner. Radio Shack $49.99. My only complaint is that it didn't come with an A/C adapter, but it's available on Eton's website for $12.95.
You alternate the display option and a s/n ratio is displayed where the time is displayed on this video. s/he could have also turned off that annoying beep.
@GMSamuelRhine You want the S/N to be a high number (check your signs). I don't know what an example of a good signal is because I don't own one. I have an S-meter.

is 1040 WHO out of Des Moines Iowa? I've heard they have a lot of power at night time.

My guess for the station on AM 680 is KNBR out of San Francisco.

EXCELLENT video! Thank you for posting.
How does the metering look on this radio? I heard it has something other than a typical bar graph/

@calcvids ah thanks for the help i found out it's good if the first part is high (S-signal) and the second is slow because thats the noise level.
