Not sure I understand which radios are copies of Drakes....
I've heard that about the quality many of the later Satellit radios.
The Grundig name to me is associated with mellow sounding luggable
radios having lots of controls and several analog dials. As I remember
the later digital models always seemed to always have some sort of
issue with either audio quality, the synch detector or memory controls
that took some of the edge from a premium priced receiver. The last
one I played with was the Satellit 700 and found it completely
un-intuitve to use. I gave up waiting for it's successor because
Grundig USA seemed to lurch from one postponment to another.
I understand the Chinese badged version of the latest Satellit can be
had for $300.00 - is that possible? I have no idea what the Satellit
badged version sells for.
