I've been away from the computer for awhile. Are Primetime and
..eke's....., can't remember it's name, still the best ones? Is one
better than the other for updates?
Thanks
By the way I do own a Grundig 750 and it's not that good at all.
1. The tuning shaft is actually loose, even after I tightend the shaft
nut. The sleave seems too big for the shaft.
2. The squelch knob won't stay on. The splined part of the shafts don't
extend far enough along the shafts to allow it to.
3. The whip antenna took about 4 or 5 pounds tugging pressure to get it to
come out of the radio.
4.My Sony 7600GR or Grundig G5 or even my CCrane SW beat this thing all to
heck reception wise.
Nice looking but not a performer except for the FM which is passable. My
advice, steer clear of this one. Buy a Sony and one of the others
mentioned instead for less money even.
