Telamon,

The Eton S-350DL Radio has a lot less 'drift'; but on
the Shortwave Radio Bands their still is some 'drift.

The old Grundig S350 Radio was a pain to use on
the Shortwave Radio Bands.

While the newer Eton S-350DL Radio is a step-up
and very usable to enjoy Listening to the Shortwave
Bands.

The Redsun RP2100 Radio is another step-up over
the Eton S-350DL Radio.

hence the old time radio expression "stay tuned" ~ RHF

Pay no attention to the dip**** here. The 350 is a fine radio for the
money. You could do far worse for a "first radio"!

I have 2 of the earlier model 350s (not DL), and they both work fine.


Well, he just has his opinion I guess.

I like my new radio and I am having fun and enjoying it very much.
Isn't that what this hobby is supposed to do: bring fun and enjoyment
to the listener? I am pleased with my choice and once I really get
into this, I am sure I will get a better radio. Remember, this is just
my starter radio. I am sure most people here had a radio less than
what they have now when they started out.

Yes, I am happy and I am happy with all my helpful buddies here!

Have a good night.

Haci

Thanks to you and all who has offered me more help.

Yeah you are right about that. Guess I don't have any questions about my
radios. However I am interested in what most everybody has to say about
theirs.

Tell ya what if I come up with something


SNIP

Don't bother telling me anything unless it is on topic.

I doubt you have a SW radio or care about the hobby but are just here to
argue with someone.

Prove me wrong.

You have unrealistic expectations of the radio. It is analog tuned with
a variable capacitor just like the old time inexpensive tube radios.
You have to expect it to drift with temperature. Turn it on and let the
temperature of the radio stabilize and as long as the room temperature
does not change the radio should stop drifting.

The DL is supposed to have a frequency locking circuitry that is
supposed to stop it from drifting. I'll go with that thought until
someone reliable posts otherwise.
