The McKinley for the European market has AM/FM/SSB & yes it will work 100% perfect here. I think it's able to cover many more frequencies as well due to multiple countries there use different channels.Here is the link for using that radio in " Export " mode...

Yes Mike is still doing repairs. I just got my Cobra 148GTL & Uniden Washington back from him a few months ago. He did a great job on both. He's the best I have dealt with for sure.
Don't know where you're located but if you look up Mike's Radio Repair on Youtube that's the guys you want to send it too as he does great work. Send him a message to see if he will do an extra channel kit as I'm not sure if he does but he does do great quality repairs & alignments. He's located...

The main issue is the power supply in these run quite hot & tend to fail in time. If it does you can just replace it with the guts from...
