Hi,
I have a Grundig YB300PE for about 6 months now,
and have been using it regularly.
I currently can tune in to Radio Taiwan International
at 5.95 and 2-3 other religious stations in the shortwave band.
I have tried to tune into other world radio stations by entering
the frequencies directly or by using auto-tuning, but have been
unsuccessful.
I have researched on why I can only get so few stations,
and I found out that my location in Vancouver, BC, Canada is
a poor location for reception.
My question is would I get more stations if I upgraded my radio
to YB400PE ?
Or would I just be limited to the number of stations because
of my location ?
Thanks in advance for your help !

Brian:
The equation would be about like this:
Better Radio: 10%
Better Antenna: 90%
Remember One Thing: The ANTENNA & GROUND SYSTEM is 55.5%
of the Radio/Receiver and Antenna/Ground Reception Equation.
TIP: Whatever you spend on your Pride & Joy (radio/receiver).
$=INVEST=$ 25% or more in a quality Antenna and Ground System
to maximize the potential of these high tech radios/receives.
