Interesting...

German

and polish

http://www.grundig.pl/produkte/audio/welt.html

pages show "newer" YB models (80, 50 and 10), and

russian

http://www.grundig.ru/produkte/audio/welt.html

and english

http://www.grundig.com/produkte/audio/welt.html

pages show "older" (P200, 400, 218, 208 and P100) models. Why? :-)


It seems that Grundig is changing their product line of world band
receivers and has not yet updated all their websites.

At least the YB 80 is on sale in Germany. Today i had the opportunity
to take a short look on it. It looks like a bigger P2000 (nearly
ATS-505 size) being technically and feature wise a mixture of the YB
400 and the ATS-505.
There is a fine thumbwheel for tuning as well as up/down buttons,
though during my short test i found no way to tune in smaller steps
than 5 kHz on SW either with the wheel or the buttons!?
Yes, there is SSB with a seperate fine tuning wheel (same as YB400),
but again no LSB/USB switch!
And I'm not quite shure if there really was a wide/narrow switch as
stated in their data sheet:

Maybe i should take a second look next week!
Apart from the local AM station there was absolutely no reception in
the store so i can not comment on this.
Price was €199,- which in my opinion is a bit on the high side!
But lets see which hidden features and qualities there may be...

Good luck for the new year to all of you!
