Default YB400PE



Hi,

Just got a YB400PE and so far it is working pretty good with the 23 ft. wire
as an antenna. Basically would like to know what the best antenna for the
YB400PE is.

Thanks,
Josh

JOSH,

IMHO: The Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE (YB-400) is a great 'portable'
AM/FM/SW Radio and can 'handle' an external Random Wire Antenna in
the range of 35 Feet to 100 Feet long. The secret is Coupling the
Random Wire Antenna to the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE Radio. And IMHO
the "Portable Wire Antenna" (PWA) is that "SECRET".

I recently got a YB400PE also. I hooked up the extendible external antenna
that comes with it. It was my experience that the built-in collapsible
antenna worked better than the external. Have others had similar
experience?

Cheers,
C.

JOSH,

IMHO: The Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE (YB-400) is a great 'portable'
AM/FM/SW Radio and can 'handle' an external Random Wire Antenna in
the range of 35 Feet to 100 Feet long. The secret is Coupling the
Random Wire Antenna to the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE Radio. And IMHO
the "Portable Wire Antenna" (PWA) is that "SECRET".

Hi,

Just got a YB 400 PE and so far it is working pretty good
with the 23 ft. wire as an antenna. Basically would like

FO&A,

It is 'claimed' that the Grundig Yacht Boy 400 PE is the most often
sold Shortwave / World Band Radio in the North American Retail Market
(NARM). Mainly due to the fact that it is available at RadioShack
and most other retail outlets in the NARM.

= = = Features + Price + Value + Availability = Sales


IMHO: I think that for many reasons the Grundig S350 Super Radio
will be the "Leading BCL Radio" 'sold' in the NARM in 2004.

$ Lower Price

@ Better for Talk Radio

* Better AM/MW "DX-A-Bility" ?

+ Good International Shortwave Broadcast Reception

TBL: The Grundig S350 Super Radio is: " $ ! @ * + # % " )

the CCRadioPlus+, the Grundig Yacht Boy 300PE and 400PE, and
other 'portable' AM-FM-Shortwave (SW) World Band Radios are
