I received a Grundig S350DL from my kids for Christmas. I suspect
this unit was a return to Radio Shack. The tuning seems awful sloppy,
and it is difficult to tune in an exact frequency (like 5875, etc).
It will overshoot the target frequency requiring several attempts at
dialing in the exact frequency.

Also, the radio was not wrapped in any kind of protective plastic.
The AC adapter looks like it was used. I know my kids saved a lot of
their money for this gift, but this thing works worse than my older
S350.

Did anyone purchase one of these recently? If so, was your radio
wrapped in a plastic wrapper or bag before being placed in the carton?
Thanks for the help!
