    Featuring dramatic modern graphics and innovative design, the ICF-32 was one of a Sony design series. It was preceded by the three-band ICF-25 and had a very similar four band successor in the ICF-35 which outwardly only differed in the grouping of the bands on the tuning scale. Special design features include a fold-out finger loop for carrying the set, a fold-down rear support, a fine tuning control and a dx-local antenna switch. There is also a "magic-eye" led tuning indicator.

    Made in Malaysia.
