Hello! I have the radio you are looking for! I was doing research getting ready to post it on E-bay and saw your posting on Pechorin's site. The Realistic Weather Cube Radio I have is in PERFECT condition! I'm listening to it now. It even still has the "Simulated Rosewood Grain Finish" sticker on the side! No damage at all - antennae still perect, too. - no battery bleed inside, either! It's a really nice unit. I will sell it to you for 35.00. I see the manual alone sells for $5.00 (I don't have the manual)! Found this interesting info on a Ham Radio site: (I wonder if it works for Cell phons now...)
"I remember discovering to my delight that a Radio Shack Weather Cube, if put on a variable power supply and the voltage decreased, would "go broadband" and I'd get whatever VHF signals were strong enough, in other words it was signal strength selective more than frequency selective. It allowed me to find out about all kinds of interesting VHF traffic near me, I even got to hear Dr. Dorian Paskowitz being paged. "
Let me know if you are interested. I'll try your phone number, too.
