I have a Tecsun BCL 3000 that I use mainly for AM DX listening at the
kitchen table. For the past 6 months the tuner for AM and SW bands occasionally goes berserk displaying numbers at random in the frequency tuning window. After a bit of playing with the tuner, usually fast tuning from one end of the dial to the other several times, resolves the problem for a short while. This problem aside, it's been a great little radio. I am not experienced at fixing things like this so I won't even attempt to open the case. I called a local radio shop and they advised that it wouldn't be worth the repair cost. So I'm looking for a fair replacement. The Source ( Canadian Radio Shack ) has a Grundig GS450DL radio onsale for $79.99. I've read reviews crucifying the model and others praising it's merits for a radio in that price range. A similar model sold bearing the C Crain badge also has both very bad and good reviews. In view that I can get a 3 year warranty for $20 extra, would the Grundig GS450Dl be a wise purchase, so should I be looking at other models? Any suggestions? |
