Help Request: Receiving only 1 Worldband Radio Station: Grundig
 

Hi,

I have a Grundig YB300PE for about 6 months now, and have been using it
regularly.

I currently can tune in to Radio Taiwan International at 5.95 and 2-3
other
religious stations in the shortwave band. I have tried to tune into
other
world radio stations by entering the frequencies directly or by using
auto-tuning, but have been unsuccessful.

I have researched on why I can only get so few stations, and I found out
that my location in Vancouver, BC, Canada is a poor location for
reception.

My question is would I get more stations if I upgraded my radio to
YB400PE?
Or would I just be limited to the number of stations because of my
location?

Thanks in advance for your help!

- Brian

The equation would be about like this:

Better Radio: 10%

Better Antenna: 90%


But be sure you see Steve Silverwood's excellent post, too.

Remember One Thing: The ANTENNA & GROUND SYSTEM is 55.5%
of the Radio/Receiver and Antenna/Ground Reception Equation.

TIP: Whatever you spend on your Pride & Joy (radio/receiver).
$=INVEST=$ 25% or more in a quality Antenna and Ground System
to maximize the potential of these high tech radios/receives.
