That's comparing apples to Starburst fruit chews. I have 2 Drakes and
I also have an R75. The R75 is a full-on communications receiver,
whereas the Grundig/Etons are entertainment radios. Just because
Larry Magne can't figure out a radio doesn't mean it's crap.


The problem here is that you are not "full on."
