Styling looks like Kaide/Kchibo models ... but does not resemble and of
the models marketed thus far. I'd grab one and give it a workout.

It is 21.99 euro in my local LIDL, which makes it close to the £14.99
it was last year where you are. I am tempted, but have not bought yet
as it is coming into stock next week. At that price, you can't go
wrong.



Yes it seems superb value and they still have loads tonight but I am
wondering just what its like, so if anyone has bought one do let us know
more.

Thanks

Mike

Check on front end overload by operating the receiver near powerful AM
and FM transmitters.

See if the AM band has birdies,
Nearby FM TX's can cause problems with SW reception.

Sometimes these things have one front-end for all bands.

Its funny that in this country ardio is offered with 155 memeries, 50
per band on FFm, MW and SW, only 5 for LW.
UK is a LW country, so I presume some more for LW on the Lidl Radio.
