Grundig S350 World Band

Picked this up a few weeks ago. Lot of fun and beats that cheap wind up with an analog display. I really like the short show from Radio netherlands called the "Research Files" Only caught it a few times so far.

World band give a fairly unbiased view of world news, when it's not jammed by a .gov somewhere. The Broadband that is being put of our power lines really puts off a LOT of RF noise and hampers World band and hams comms



Nothing major.

Just a Portable for the Truck when I'm on a jobsite:
It's pretty cool. Digital Tuning display with a Pully and string tuning knob.

Has a few cons to it but overall not bad for under $100

OK, I like it. I only have 3 SW radios now, perhaps I can justify a 4th...

Very nice, Melbo.

 

I'm looking at some external antennas for it now. A little confusing if you don't know what you need.

For any new SW listeners, I highly recommend you find the "Passport to World Band Radio" Comes out once a yr and is like a TV Guide to SW. With a bunch of reviews on all the equipment

 

Ya, you can burn it up with the wrong setup. Been there, done that
