After $200+ dollars on various analog and digital-tuned AM/FM radios,
for AM DXing, I came across the $10 Sony ICF-S10MK2:

I could get the same AM DX stations, as the $100 S350; plus, I just
fell for the S350's pretty face, and didn't realize what a cheap
plactic box it is:

Where are you paying $100 for an S350? * I have 2 and paid about $60 for
each. * Both are fine radios.

owned?"

..... and the winner is: * The C Crane radio. *Did you have a point in

The CCRadio, SR III, and S350 are all over-hyped cheap plastic boxes -
that was my point.

And, in the same price range and capabilities, you would recommend what
radios as replacements?

Here, I still see some SR III's available for 49.99, whereas the ccradio
is over 100 bucks (I believe it was $129.00 off cc site--last time I
looked), if you don't value the ability to tape that much, the SR III is
a MUCH better buy.

Actually, for the price of the ccrane radio, should have, at least, a
cd-rw in it and ability to record in multi-bitrate mp3/ogg vorbis format
.... screw the tape!

Along with the Sony ICF-2010 and Grundig YB 400, right? The Sony actually
has more votes than the S350, and the YB 400 has the same amount. What
"point" do you draw from these facts?

This kind of "survey" is pretty useless, as the people complaining obviously
have defective units.

Any decent AM/FM radio is comparable to those cheap plastic boxes -
that is my point.

Sounds to me like you have no point at all, since you keep changing it.
