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.

Thank you for confirming my assertions about the Grundig 750 being
just another over hyped piece of made in communist red China junk.

Welcome back to the group Justtis. As you can see rec.radio.shortwave
has deteriorated to the point where its utility as a shortwave
information forum is dubious at best. It has been destroyed by a
relatively small number of attention starved ego maniacs. With the
return of more individuals like you perhaps we can take rrs back from
the no life imbeciles.
