While I agree with you, RHF, one thing the Grundig has going for it is the
audio quality. It is superb! Then again just about any portable with a
speaker larger than 2" sounds better than the 7600 GR...

"G" - Buy the Sony ICF-SW7600GR which is
in the same general price range; and a much
better 'portable' AM/FM Shortwave Radio. ~ RHF

The Sony sounds OK. Where do people get the idea that it does not sound
good? If you park yourself front and center of the 3 1/8 inch speaker
the sound is what you would expect to get. If you want better use
headphones or ear buds. You also get stereo with the headphones.

The web does not tell you what the speaker size is in the Grundig 400PE
or E10 or E100 but judging from the case sizes those have about the same
size speakers or smaller.

I have played with the Grundig 400PE in the store and it didn't sound
much different to me than the Sony. What do you expect for a small
speaker in a plastic box anyway?
