Default GE Superadio III vs. Grundig S350

The 350 has better selectivity, to take out a strong station nearby in
frequency.

I'd not use either one for DX, rather using a MW loop with another
radio, like the 7600G, to get the daytime distance.

The GE seems more trouble free; the 350 has SW bands and tells you what
frequency you're tuned to. I dunno, either radio leaves you room to
move up. I think the GE is cheaper, which maybe would be a big
factor in satisfaction ; and more volume available. The 350
is marginal outdoors volumewise.

I suggest a MW loop as a first purchase and use it with whatever radio
you have already. (MW loop helps more the less sensitive your radio ;
almost not mattering with either of these radios, though helping a
little. Only matters in the daytime; at night, signals are strong
enough to hear already. Thousands of them.)
