Have used it for about 3 months now. Seems like a good
sounding and well thought out portable .
However, why does it drift down in frequency as the temperature
increases? As a test, I had it set to a station in the 21 MHz broadcast
band and to my horror seen frequency set go down...30 to 60 KHz as if
something was moving it ! What kind of gremlin did Tecsun,the OEM, plant
in it? Why it is not modified; as far as I know this is has been a
problem since its inception- nearly two years ago!!

well, we are new to this whole shortwave thing, having bought a
grundig s350 at a garage sale and a little spool antenna thing from
radio shack. there is certainly some noticable drift with ours,
seemingly more towards the beginning of a listening session than at the
end. we figure its part of the experience and don't really find it that
annoying.
