Hello, people!

http://www.grundig.com/presse.grundi...dig_Yacht_Boy/

Grundig representatives in poland say that YB 80 replace YB 400. I
could not find any info about YB 80 except above mentioned press

Do you know, what features are in YB 80? What is difference between YB
80 and YB 400?

Thank you.

Viktar.
