Don't believe "WG"!
Join the RadioShack dx394 Group at Yahoo Groups and find out the truth.

He was told the truth: The DX394 is a poor performer. Better radios
can be had for about the same money, so why should he settle for an
entry-level piece of junk?

I'd rather have a DX398 portable than the DX394. Even with all the
mods I could find it was still a poor radio. The memory scheme is
completely stupid, there is awful IF bleed-through, it has lousy
selectivity without replacement filters, and the audio is only
tolerable.

If the truth will save him some grief and money, why would you tell
him otherwise?
