    Hello, first post, I have 2 mint SBE radios I picked up about 10 years ago, both work fine. Was wondering if there is a way to get channels 24-40 or at least 35-40? I had this same radio as a teenager and it had a button on the rear that allowed more channels and had the clairifier opened. I...
