I checked out one a friend owned.

Here's a link with basic information about the radio. (Link says 302, but same page has 394)

http://www.dxing.com/rx/dx302.htm

They rate radios for "value" on a 1-5 star basis. The 394 gets 1 star.

Here's a link to the same site's table of contents with links to information about 100 or so of the more popular radios on the used market:

Personally, if I was in the market for a budget priced table top I think I'd look at the Tentec RX-320. Better performance, and generally available for about $200-225 on the used market.
