But you must admit, the S350 is kind of cheesy and flimsy. No comparison to
the E5/G5. So not all Eton/Grundigs are created equal.
Of course - it's the low end model. What do you expect?
But *you* must admit, for $60, it's sensitivity, ease of use, battery
life and room filling sound can't be beat.
I've got 2 - a Grundig and a Tecsun. Those looking for a great DX
machine can look elsewhere. But for a good all-around radio - great
AM, great FM and better than average SW - it's a classic AFAIC.

I was a big fan of my old DE1103 before I sold it and I would put that
$50 radio up against the S350 with absolute confidence, on a side-by-
side test my Degen was even more sensitive than my Sony SW55. Mind you
I still reckon the OP would be wise to follow the good advice on this
thread and consider the 7600.
