Welcome, Karel. Icon_smile You are doing a fine job expressing yourself in English, no worries.

I used to have a 2620 exactly like yours. I don't know how it made its way over here to the USA, but I wish I had kept it. Anyway, if memory serves, I believe the 2620 has a long wave band as well as standard AM (medium wave) and one shortwave band. The USA 620 did not have a long wave band; it has AM (medium wave) and two shortwave bands.

I don't know if I have a 610 or 620 escutcheon around here anywhere. That is what you would need for your 2620. If I run across one that is in good shape, I will scan it for you. But I can't guarantee that I even have one.
