I have a Sony 2001, and it works very weell. Ther model 2002,
the revision, is basically the same but with a few improvements.
The 2002 is about $175 from 47th street Photo in New York. For slightly
less money ($125), you can get a Panasonic RF6500 from the same place. I
hear sound quality is comprable to the 2002, but less sensitivity and
selectivity than the digital 2002.
Finally, for about $60 you can get a Panasonic RF083 which is supposed
to be fine in Europe (where stations are quitte strong).
For more current info, consult the 1985 Radio/TV Handbook, which will
have up to date reviews and info.
As far as the car goes, there is a book around (terribly out of date)
called <>.
My parents used it to do just that when we were there in 1974 on sabbatical.
