That is my best radio, but I actually have a couple of Sony radios I use more often a ICF-P26 and a ICF-F10.

It's nice that Sony still makes "dumb" radios that are just a single IC and a capacitor for tuning.

Yep, it's pretty much a legacy product at this point, at least in first world countries. I imagine they get more use in less developed nations.

Not really sure, but probably yes.

Last one I bought was this guy: https://countycomm.com/products/countycomm-gp-5-ssb-general-purpose-radio

At least an older version. Covers AM/FM/SW and works surprisingly well. Friend of mine was listening to stuff from the states on a trip to Australia a few years back - of course he was literally in the middle of nowhere, so no interference.
