Russell,

One of the best places for reviews is at Radio Netherlands:
http://www.rnw.nl/realradio/rx_index.html

Once you narrow your field a bit, this newsgroup is a great resource. Just
post a note saying which units you are considering, and you'll probably get
replies from people that have one of each.

As for the Grundig S-350, there is a very active newsgroup on Yahoo:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Grundig-S-350/

A running commentary on that group now is that it may be that the Tecsun
version of that radio is actually superior to the Grundig version, due to a
revision that "preheats" portions of the tuner to keep it from drifting (as
it warms up from being "off"). Grundig has e-mailed (to one of the group
members) that they've made revisions in their latest production, but they
haven't bothered to tell us exactly what these revisions were.

Hi all,
Just wondering if someone could give me a few web sites that have
reviews of short wave radios, I have seen eham but do recall another one
a while back that had pictures and rated them by stars 1-5 stars etc
I am looking for a small radio maybe the grundig 400??? for travelling
but would like it fairly compact
I am also looking into the Grundig S350 for my home as it looks like a
pretty intersting radio?
Any web sites would be appreciated or feedback
Thanks-Russ
