[Lvas] Shortwave radio

[David Blanchette]

Anyone know where one can buy a shortwave radio that picks up WWV and 
doesn't cost an arm and a leg?  I need one for the asteroid 
occultation Thursday.

I picked up a radio at Radio Shack, but it did not pick up WWV.  I 
took it back, planning to buy the next higher priced model.  The guy 
there said not to bother, but offered me the $149 model...

WalMart does not appear to sell radios anymore, period.  No 
"emergency" radios in the camping area.

The Target website lists half a dozen radios, but they are all "online only."

Bass Pro shops website lists only one, expensive radio.

REI lists several, but the store is clear across town in 
Henderson.  I may try to get out there, maybe try Fry's while I'm 
that direction.

Circuit City does not carry radios
