Grundig "Design by Porsche" No sensitivity on Reception ?????
I have a Grundig SW receiver "Design by Porschie" that I purchased
new. The SW reception has always been Expremely Poor- no sensitivity- even when the Propagation level is Superior. If anyone has knowlege of this Grundig SW set, I would appreciate your experience. Is it possible that the set has been defective since new ? Thanks Jay |

I have owned a few Grundig radios, over the years the quality has
declined--they still sell they at the prices they do because they are relying on their past reputation--a reputation which is no longer deserved for the cheap plastic junk they are dumping on us at inflated prices...

Don't have personal experience with that model, but isn't it a rebadged
Degen or Tecsun model? If so, sensitivity doesn't seem to be a problem with their radios. A couple of questions: What radio are you comparing it to. Which bands are you listening to and when. John |

Thanks Jay Perhaps your wording is a little stronger than most, but your observations seem to be typical for this model. |
