How good it is, is largely luck of the draw. The design is excellent,
however the manufacturing often isn't nearly as good.

yea, from what i understand when this unit first came out, there was
alot of manufacturing problems, they started making a "second"
generation to fix alot of the problems, soon after they started making
a "third generation". The third generation is pretty much perfect...
Ill be getting a 3rd generation..

Grundig has had an excellent name in radio for over 4 decades.

My Satellit 800 is an excellent receiver. Because of some quality
control problems, I suggest you purchase the 800 from a dealer that
has a 15 or 30 day money-back-guarantee if not satisfied policy.

How does one make certain they're getting a "third generation? set. I'd
appreciate any help on this...i.e. if I buy one from Universal Radio, will
that be a 3rd generation???

You can be assurred that if you buy it from Universal it will be 3rd
generation. They will be happy to confirm that by e-mail or phone, as they did
for me.

They are very helpful and have a good rep for customer service.
