GrundiK indeed
Ancient design
Over priced in its category.
Performance is ordinaire and worse on certain bands.
Ergonomics s**ks
Only 40 memories.
Eats 6 AA batteries like water.
Speaker sound is over rated.
Its ugly.

Get the Sony ICF-SW7600GR
The latest design in its class.
The best by far in its price class.
Excellent performance across all bands.
Very good image rejection.
Ergonomics is excellent.
100 Memories
Synch detector.
Good 4 AA battery use.
Its smaller than the YB400.
Speaker sound is treble biased but certainly decent.
(Older listeners may prefer it over the bassy YB400.)
Headphone sound is superb.
