MM - I would like to hear more about this comparison of the
Grundig Satellit 800-M and the Kenwood R-5000.

Hard to believe!

if you get it, it MUST be properly modified to be a good receiver. the
bad reviews are for the unmodified 394 and they are valid. HOWEVER a
PROPERLY modified DX-394 is far superior to the stock version. the
properly modified 394 is a fun and usable radio.

also don't pay too much. a modified 394 is only worth about $200. for
the $250 that many people pay you can almost get a Satellit 800, the
best radio for the money on the market.

MM,

I just thought that besides your Speaker Mod to the Grundig Satellit 800 M.

That you may have done some other Modifications to the
Grundig Satellit 800 M, like Filters and such.

I (and I think others) will be interesting to hear your views
once your Kenwood R-5000 is Sold.

I await your Report - Hence the New Suject Line"

I just purchased another 800 at a very nice price. this 800 will be
receiving TWO filter replacements the wide will become wider and the
middle filter will have a MEASURED bandwidth that is narrower. I will
also experiment some more with the speaker and other items.
