Default A very good tabletop radio to buy

The Chinese-made (no longer German made) S350 is cheap, low-grade
plastic, with a low-resolution display, suffers from drifting and
tuning backlash, has a smelly imitation-leather-handle, cheap
dials/switches, 1960's-grade electronics, plastic speaker grill, SW
images galore, antenna flops and doesn't snap into place, etc... Is
that enough ?


No. It still has great local AM/FM reception, great sound and outstanding
battery life.

You obviously had a defective unit - assuming you ever really had one at
all.
