Harry Shearer's favorite shortwave radio


Comic Harry Shearer (voice of several Simpsons' characters, etc.) is profiled in The New York Times style section for his love of this particular shortwave radio, the Sangean ATS-909. “This is my companion. I’ve always been more about functionality over looks. This has all the buttons I need and not much else. There is one that says ‘Page,’ and I’ve never pressed that. I don’t know what would happen,” he says.
