Don't expect to hear too much on the Tropical Band; usually, two or three stations on the 75m band is all this band has to offer in Europe.
On the threshold between the seventies and eighties, a super radio contains tons of discrete parts, like 17 transistors, a handful of diodes, and tons of coils. On the left lower part, there is one IC, the MC14016B four fold switch. Some years later, a true eighties radio would contain an HF and an AF IC, and two or three transistors.
