[Electronics-talk] Cobolt Speechmaster Am, Fm, Lw, Sw Radio

[Tracy Carcione]

I found a specs page.  It takes either 4 AA batteries, or can be plugged in. 
It does sound nice.
I googled Cobolt Speechmaster radio, and found several reviews, plus what 
looks like a very complete set of instructions.
