Buyer's Question - SRIII vs. S350
radio...@yahoo.com
reading opinions about different radios lately. I'm in the market to
get a radio that will primarily be used for AM DX'ing. I've got only
$100 to spend and I wanted to hear from those who had both the
Superadio III and the Grundig S350. I know in a sense this is comparing
apples to oranges, but I've heard many good things about both radios.
I know this is a shortwave group, but I figured if I chose to get the
S350 that I could listen to shortwave. I've done research on both
radios and know what they have and what they don't have. Some of these
questions have a couple parts to them. Here are the questions I have:
1) How is the sensitivity on both radios on both AM and FM? Is one
radio a good deal more sensitive than the other, or are they fairly
close?
2) How is the selectivity on both radios on both AM and FM? Is one
radio a good deal more selective than the other, or are they fairly
close?
3) How good is the quality on both radios? I mean such as the "feel",
the knobs, the switches, etc.
4) I live on the east coast and I primarily listen to 650 AM WSM, and
mostly to the Grand Ol' Opry. One of the main reasons I'm getting a new
radio is because my basic (VERY basic) radios drift on 650 AM, very
badly. How would both radios handle 650 AM WSM, if anyone listens to
the station?
5) How good is the S350 on shortwave? A little drift doesn't bother me.
I can put up with even a tad of moderate drift.
6) I've heard that the S350 could be found some places selling for $50,
does anyone know of any online resellers that are selling the S350 for
$50 EXCLUDING eBay? The reason for asking is that if I could find one
for $50 or $60 I could then afford to get both radios.
7) I've also heard of one main problem with the SRIII. I've heard that
the dial is very inaccurate. How true is this and it is a huge problem
and can it be fixed?
8) Overall, with all things considered, if you could get either radio,
which one would you choose and why?
I also know that these radios don't have presets, PLL and other extras,
but that doesn't bother me. I've also considered other radios in the
price range and it came down to these two, mainly because they're both
analog radios, which I like better than digital. I also realize the
S350 has analog tuning with a digital readout.
I'm sorry for all the questions but I figured this was the best place
to come to ask this question. Thanks for reading. :-)

You're not going to like my answer as it does not truly address your
questions, but, owning all three versions of the GE Superadio and
appreciating their positive attributes, nonetheless I have "retired"
all but one which I sometimes use strictly for local FM (performance of
which is very good). I do not own a Grundig S350 but, having seen
several in local stores, I am not impressed. Personally, I would never
buy one (even with its fantastic looks and sound quality). In my
opinion, it is more style than substance.
The radios are probably "okay" for MW ("AM") DXing but if you can just
"swing" a few dollars more you could buy a radio which is far better
than both: the Sony ICF-SW7600GR which you can find for about $130.00
(from J&R Music World, among other dealers). You would find that this
radio is just as sensitive on MW's as either of the two you mention
and, with its digital readout and, especially, its synchronous
detection circuit, it just "blows" away those other two. No kidding.
You're correct that "memories" are of little importance to many of us,
but PLL is not an "extra." It is a virtual necessity for DXing.
You asked about selectivity: the Sony is FAR better that either the GE
or the Grundig even though those two have two "bandwidths." The Sony's
synchronous selectable-sideband circuitry allows you to eliminate
selective fading distortion (which, have you ever noticed, ALWAYS
occurs during station ID! ;-) ) and to also pick the sideband with less
interference. (For example if you lived near New York which has a
strong station WFAN on 660 kHz and you want to listen to WSM 650 kHz,
you would get a lot of "splatter" from 660 on 650 making listening
difficult if not impossible with the GE and the Grundig. However, with
the Sony, you could switch in the sync circuit to LSB on 650 and
virtually eliminate 660. This is an example only; I do not live near
New York nor have I presonally every tried that particular frequency,
but I have done the same thing with other stations.)
Another beauty of the radio is that you can supply it with certain
accessories as money allows. To get even better "sound," the Sony's
weakest point, you can buy a cable from Radio Shack to run the sound
from the line output through your stereo system. Very inexpensive. Then
the sound is limited only by your stereo. Or you could buy an amplified
(computer) speaker set, a somewhat more expensive option. To improve
the MW reception, you can buy a Select-A-Tenna (or the similar Terk)
which works inductively (does not require any wire hookup); putting the
Select-A-Tenna and the Sony ICF-SW7600GR on an inexpensive "lazy susan"
you can really "null out" co-channel interference and/or boost
reception of very weak signals. (Note that the Select-A-Tenna would
also work well with the GE and the Grundig and you CAN attach a
moderate long-wire antenna to the GE and, within reason, it works well
with little overloading. I do not know how the Grundig would work with
a long-wire on MW. You CANNOT physically attach a long-wire or other
antenna for MW reception to the Sony, but, as the Select-A-Tenna works
so well, that is unimportant, in my opinion. The Sony's antenna
connection is for short wave reception only.)
These "options," which, as I said, you could purchase at your
convenience, are not 100% necessary. You may find that, for your
purposes, the radio alone is all you need.
Plus, of course, the Sony is a very good performer on short wave even
with just its whip antenna. (A simple "clip-on" wind-up wire antenna is
packed with the radio and sometimes offers a bit of improvement in
reception of SW.) If you do decide to pursue short wave listening, the
Sony can handle a fairly good external antenna (especially good, though
sometimes hard-to-find is the Sony AN-LP1 "collapsible" loop antenna,
which works very well with the radio and is convenient for travel as
well).
It is my advice to you (for what it's worth) to try to save just a few
dollars more and buy the Sony. It is just a much better radio than
either the GE or Grundig and far more flexible in operation. I believe
the performance and pleasure you derive from it will more then make up
for any financial sacrifice you may need to make.
In addition, the Sony's quality of construction, at least in my
experience, is much better than either of the other two radios. There
is nothing that can be done to improve the GE's dial inaccuracy and its
mediocre construction quality may loom large. (The Grundig's
construction quality appears to me to be equally mediocre.)
Please pardon this long answer which didn't really address your
question. You can gather that I am very positive about the Sony
ICF-SW7600GR (and rather negative about the GE Superadios, with all
three series of which I have had extensive experience).
Frankly, I regard the Sony as the best small portable radio being
manufactured at the present time.
At its current price, it is nothing short of a bargain.
All my best wishes to you,
Joe

newspapers online and offline in your area and you might find a better
radio for much less money.The second batch of GE Super Radios are not as
good as the first batch of them,or so I once read somewhere a few years
ago.I think the second batch of them are made in a different
country.Same as those windup radios that were originally made in Africa
and then they started building them in China and the quality went to
pot.

something I mentioned earlier. I have looked at all of the options
everyone has mentioned, such as the Sony and the Degan,but I came to
the conclusion, based on what I will be using it for (which wouldn't be
too much), that either one of these would fit my needs. As for other
portables, I've looked into other portables, I'd just like to know
about these two from anyone who has them. :-)
I'd like to hear some more opinions about these two radios from anyone
who has either of them or both. Thanks again.

bought one from www.ccrane.com (ccrane is a RIPP OFF) and I bought
two radios from ccrane too.(That was about seven years ago) The first
radio I bought from ccrane when I also bought a selectatenna (the
selectatenna I bought back then cost about $57.00 and it did NOT work at
all!) was the one those kooks Art Bell and George Noory tout so much,the
Sangean one that has AM/FM/TV/Weather bands,it cost about $164.00 (a
cheap piece of over rated over priced piece of no good JUNK!) and I
bought a Sangean ATS 909 shortwave radio too.(another piece of over
rated over priced piece of junk!) I sent that JUNK! back to ccrane
company.(By the way,those Sangean radios are real good at loseing the
digital displays on them,or so I have read more than a few times before)
I have never owned a Sony 7600 GR radio before,but from what I have read
about them,I think next month,I am going to buy one from J&R.

take Joe's advice about the Sony 7600 GR Radios.

weird and some plain dead wrong. caveat emptor
I have a GE SRIII and can say without fear or favour that it will be the
most likely to get that faint MW station you are trying for.
I have owned many portables Sony 2010,7600 and various Sangeans, but on AM
MW the GE SRIII stands head and shoulders above the rest for getting that
really faint far off DX on AM MW.
I once got WWKB Buffalo NY on it without an external antenna and that
station is 8,000 miles away from this QTH!
I have only one AM MW station some distance away and the ONLY portable that
can pick up this station with listenable quality is my SRIII
Yes, the knobs are a bit wobbly and the tuning dial is very inaccurate, but
it does not drift and for getting that single station you are after it will
seriously outperform all the other portables on AM MW.

Jim,
I have owned both the GE SRIII and the Grundig S350. After receiving
the Grundig S350, I sold the GE.
The Grundig S350 is fantastic, ESPECIALLY on the low end of the AM
(medium wave) band. Exceptional sensitivity AND selectivity. I live
in central California and wanted to get 610 KFRC from San Francisco,
about 200 miles from me. The S350 beat everything else I have,
including the Grundig Satellit 800, the Panasonic RF-2200, the CCRadio,
and the GE SRIII. The SR350 was the only one that could eliminate a
strong signal from 620, and could normally due it even with the wide
band filter by rotating the radio. When conditions are such that the
wide filter doesn't eliminate all of 620, I merely use the narrow
filter. Although the Satellit 800 could eliminate signals on 620 by
using selectable sideband sync detection, sensitivity wasn't good
enough without using an external antenna.
After receiving the S350 I not only sold the GE, but also sold the
Panasonic RF-2200 as the S350 proved to produce better reception except
on FM. The Panasonic really shines on FM.
The Grundig S350 is also very sensitive on FM. Not as selective as I
would like, but it still beats the SRIII.
The dial on the SRIII was way off on my set. I much prefer the S350
digital readout, which I find on my set to be exactly as it shows.
Drift on MW is minimal.
The GE, with it's larger and two-speaker system, of course has the best
sound. But the S350 sounds great for its size.
Sensitivity on the GE and the S350 are probably about the same. But
selectivity is much better on the S350. The narrow bandwidth really
works great on both MW and SW.
The S350 does overload on strong signals, but it has a variable RF
control. I have found you need patience when using the RF control as
you can also eliminate a lot of interference using it.
The S350 is on sale at NormThompson.com for $74.50. It is the best buy
I've ever made on a radio (I paid the full retail price), and I might
mention it is a lot of fun to play with. I use the alarm feature on
the radio which really comes in handy.
There is NO question in my mind -- the Grundig S350 is TOPS for the
price. Even beats the Grundig YB400 on shortwave because the S350 has
a near zero noise level, so signals covered up with hissing sounds on
the YB400 are crystal clear on the S350.

sell some pencils or start a shoeshine business. In about a week or ten
days you would have
accumulated at least $40 more dollars. That would give you a grand total of
about $140. Enough to buy a really good Sony ICF7600GR portable which will
blow the underwear off those other two mediocre radios and includes SSB &
Synch-Detector to boot.

It's a pity that the gentleman who started this thread is insistent
upon comparing just the Grundig S350 and the GE Superadio III, both of
which are, in my opinion, mediocre RF designs and, what is worse,
they're poorly constructed (the S350 in China and, though my early III
model was made in Maylaysia, nowadays I'm sure that the GE Superadio is
made in China as well and to a pretty poor construction standard - even
my Maylaysian-made one, indeed all of my samples, is certainly no
barn-burner).
That's not to say that ALL products made in China are poor, however.
Some are good - the Sony ICF-SW35 for example - but most ARE poor. They
do not hold up over the long haul, at least in my personal experience.
(I evidently have had the same experience with Sangean models that you
have had; they just don't last. I won't buy any more of their products;
I work too hard for my money as I'm sure you do.)
The Sony ICF-SW7600GR is made in Japan and to a very high and
consistent construction standard. I know. I own two (2) ICF-SW7600G
models (the predecessor to the current model) and three (3) ICF-7600GR
models. Yes, I have read that a few people have had quality-control
"issues," but I have not. All five, which were purchased from Universal
Radio, arrived in perfect condition and have remained that way. All are
in current use. The oldest is seven years old and the youngest is three
years old.
You won't go wrong in buying the radio from J&R Music World. I have
dealt with them for many years and have always found them fair and
reliable. Their packing is first-rate. If you do unfortunately happen
to get a "dud," they'll exchange it for you right away and with minimal
inconvenience on your part. And, at least in the case of the '7600GR,
right now their price can't be beat.
Please let us all know your impressions of the radio when you do get
it. Remember - it's not "perfect;" most notably its image-rejection is
not all it should be, but, by and large, it is a superb instrument and,
as I've stated, in my opinion it is the best small portable radio being
made today.
I wish we could persuade the creator of this thread to reconsider, but,
of course, his choice is his choice and that's nobody's business but
his own.
I hope he'll be happy with whichever of those two radios he buys, but
I'm afraid I believe he'll regret his purchase. I hope I'm wrong in
this assessment.
I do wish you the very best of luck with the ICF-SW7600GR and I hope it
brings you many hours of entertainment and enjoyment.
Best,
Joe (Opinionated but Lovable!)
P.S. I do have to disagree with you about the Select-A-Tenna. Yes it is
priced higher than it need be, but, at least in my experience, it works
very well indeed, especially with the Sony radio. It looks "cheap," but
it holds up. Mine is about ten or twelve years old, I believe. (Maybe
older.) I bought it from the Herrington catalog.

lowest price select-a-tenna (about $57.00) at the same time I ordered
the Sangean AM/FM/TV/Weather radio from ccrane company.That was about
seven years ago.I read the select-a-tenna directions carefully and I
tried that select-a-tenna gadget every which a way from sundown and in
all kinds of positions only my girlfriend knows about.I could not notice
any impovement at all in the reception of that radio and some of my
other radios I have here either with that select-a-tenna or without that
select-a-tenna.I am glad you are having good luck with your
select-a-tenna though.I have been burned twice on two antennas I have
bought before,my Tiny-Tenna and that select-a-tenna I sent back to
ccrane company with that Sangean radio and I also sent back the Sangean
ATS 909 radio to ccrane company too.I am going to buy a Sony 7600 GR
radio from J&R and if I am not more than satisfactorily impressed with
that radio when it gets here,back to J&R it goes.Sometimes,I think I
have better luck buying my old radios from Goodwill and other similar
junk shops.

I don't think you'll be disappointed with the Sony ICF-SW7600GR. If you
value quality-construction in a portable radio, along with very good
performance, I believe you will really appreciate this receiver.
As I stated it has its flaws; ALL sophisticated short wave radios do.
But this radio has been in production for many years; the 'GR is really
just a "refinement" of the 'G model which debuted in 1994 - it adds
more memories and those memories are now non-volatile - but performance
(and build-quality) is the same.
If "number one" hadn't been any good, I wouldn't have bought "number
two," "number three," "number four," or "number five!"
By the way, you might want to consider buying rechargeable NiMH
batteries for the radio. (Look for ones with 2000 mAh rating.) This
makes operation very economical. Don't waste your money on an
AC-adapter; it's not necessary, the ones offered are
exhorbitantly-priced, and some add "noise." Those rechargeable
batteries last a VERY long time and then you just recharge them!
Sorry about your experience with Select-A-Tenna. Mine works just fine
and really improves MW DXing. I even use it sometimes with my Grundig
Satellit 800. I have never been tempted by the "Tiny-Tenna." I like the
Sony AN-LP1 antenna with the '7600's; it's especially convenient for
travel. The AOR WL500 Window Loop antenna, though far more expensive,
also PERFORMS far better.
By the way, I have noticed some of your comments elsewhere regarding
the Wellbrook ALA 330S antenna being "overpriced" and a design you
could duplicate yourself. Well, I own one. Many people have tried to
duplicate it but, so far, none have succeeded. In my location, which
has an abundance of local electrical noise and other forms of
interference, the Wellbrook antenna has been nothing short of a miracle
and, believe me, I have tried many, many antennas over the years. The
Wellbrook works. Period. There is currently NO other comparable
antenna. If you're lucky enough to live in an electrically-quiet area,
well, a long-wire or other similar outdoor antenna is generally the
best you can have and all you need (I wish I could have one), but if,
like myself, your location is "less than ideal" electrically-wise, then
you must experience the Wellbrook to believe it. I bought mine out of
desperation; it's the best money I've ever spent (on the short wave
hobby). I can't have any outdoor antenna due to HOA restrictions, but,
with the Wellbrook, I don't need one. (Mine is attic-mounted on a
rotator.) The signal-to-noise ratio it offers is breathtaking. I don't
know what Andy Ikin puts into his antennas, and, frankly, I don't care.
It's enough that he makes the antenna available to us and for that I am
eternally grateful to him.
Sorry about the "diatribe" and for being somewhat OT on this thread.
Again, I wish you the best of luck with your new Sony radio.
I see in the previous post "RHF's" listing of some dealers from whom to
buy the GE and/or the Grundig. The listing is good. If price is
paramount, then "Radiodud" might as well go with the GE for $38.00 but
I firmly believe it is money thrown out.
Best,
Joe (As always, Opinionated but Lovable! - and, regarding the GE

answered the questions I asked. It's a refreshing change of pace for a
newsgroup. As for the gentleman who was wondering why I insisted on
just comparing these two. I have my reasons, and no matter how "dumb"
it sounds, here they are:
1) In the first place, I know that I wouldn't be using this radio for
VERY serious AM DX'ing. At least for the price, which brings me to my
next point.
2) Price. I'm considering either one of these models because in one
place, I had heard that sometimes the S350 goes for $50 to $60 and that
generally the SRIII goes for $40 to $50, but I could spend up to $100,
no more.
3) I don't care for digital tuning. Even though digital is the "wave of
the future", I just do not care for digital tuning at all. I like
tuning knobs and that ol' school feel. For this reason, and other
reasons, the Sony is out.
To the gentleman who recommended the Sony. I really do appreciate your
recommendation, and I do know about Sony and their overall good
quality. The features it has are purely overkill and the radio even at
$30 more than $100, is too expensive in this case. Plus the fact that
these two I have mentioned have, from what I've heard, far better sound
quality than any radio with digital tuning. That makes a HUGE
difference to me.
I've had a few people who have been very kind and answered my questions
without telling me what I do need. That's very informative and right on
the money. But I want to thank everyone else as well for their
recommendations, but when I say it's down to these two models, that's
in fact, what I mean. :-)
I'd appreciate any other advice on either of the two models and how
you feel they perform overall. Thanks again.

1) Are there any online or mail order places that will accept C.O.D.?
That's a big deal with me. I'm avoiding eBay at all costs. Don't ask me
why, but I'll put it like this, I've seen too many people burned by
eBay.
2) I've heard that it sometimes takes 2 to 3 replacements before
getting a good Superadio III. How will I know that it's defective aside
from it not turning on when you press the Power button? Also, which
dealers online or mail order have a liberal return policy?
3)By any chance, does anyone have a SR III they'd be willing to part
with?
Thanks for taking the time and putting up with my questions. :-)

Concur. My Super Radio III is a ver sensitive receiver, especially for the
money. I cannot imagine how good it would be after a complete alignment.
The only drawback I've found is the poor filtering. I think there's a
business
opportunity for the enterprising, technically-minded individual who's
willing
to align the Super Radio III and install "tighter" filters, but the IF
bandwidth
issue is, in my mind, a nit to be picked.
I believe that it's a radio with outstanding "ears," and it performs
amazingly
well in a rural (i.e., RF quiet) setting.

I sorry I offended you with my "strong" recommendations for the Sony
rado. I can understand your reasoning (even though I personally don't
agree with it). I can also understand your preference for analog-tuned
radios (though again I disagree). That said, here are my answers to two
of your questions.
1) I do not believe there are ANY online electronics dealers who will
accept COD orders. You might call and ask Universal Radio, C. Crane,
Grove Enterprises, AES, Bennett Brothers, and J&R Music World if they
will accept a COD order. You can look up their telephone numbers
online. Note that I do not know if they all sell the radio(s) in which
you are interested. I also believe that, if you do find a dealer who
will sell on a COD basis, you will pay more and that's not even
counting the COD fees. If you can't or won't use a credit card or
check, use a money order and make sure you are dealing with a reputable
dealer. That will afford minimal risk. (It may also be wise to send the
money order by registered mail, return-receipt requested.) Bennett
Brothers always sold the GE Superadios at low prices. All of the above
dealers are reputable and will allow exchanges for defective
merchandise. By the way, have you tried a local dealer? While a local
electronics or appliance dealer may not stock either of your two
preferred radios, they may be able to order one for you through their
buying group. Even a local hardware store might be able to obtain one.
I think it's worth a try.
2) You're right - often you may receive two, three (or even more - that
happened to me!) defective GE's. How can you tell? Only by trying your
unit next to a known good one or other known good radio which you
believe may have similar performance. There is no other way unless you
have some test equipment. I persevered with the units because I had
read reviews which claimed that the radio was, in effect, the best
thing since white bread. My first unit, Version I, was a very good
performer on local FM; it had no AM antenna terminals (later the first
version was revised to include those terminals) and no strap to hold in
the batteries (which would fall out sometimes with no excuse at all!).
I bought the Version II having read that it was greatly improved over
the first version. Well, due to the two speakers, yes, the sound was
better, but AM performance (even with a wire attached to the
now-included antenna terminals) was not as good. Now there was a strap
to hold in the batteries. Version III (my FOURTH sample) is even worse
on AM and no better on FM. As far as I can tell, it is functioning
correctly - it receives exactly the same AM and FM stations with the
same apparent strength as my other Superadios. (Local FM stations come
in well and sound very good, but my Sony - sorry - radio "blows it
away" when listening to FM stations somewhat farther away. The Sony
"hears" FM stations that just do not "exist" on the Superadio(s).). My
Version III was purchased in the early-to-mid 90's (I'm not sure); it's
my "last" GE Superadio no matter what is "claimed" for any future
version. (By the way, I also own a CC Radio; the less said about that
the better! Believe me, I've learned from painful and expensive
experience!)
Except for my Version II GE (which I keep in a room for casual FM
listening) the others are "buried" somewhere in my crawl space; the
last time I looked for them I couldn't find them!
Caveat emptor!
Best,
Joe
P.S. I agree with you about Ebay though I've read the Liypn's Ebay
Store is a reputable place to purchase the Grundig S350. However, I
won't deal with ANY Ebay seller. I just don't want to take a chance,

on SW is "there", but settles down after awhile. AM reception is excellent
in my opinion (others may vary) Layout of the controls are fine, however, I
think putting the volume dial on the right hand side where the RF Gain dial
is, would have been a better move. The tuning dial has a great "feel" to it
as well, and is backed up by the "outer dial" for fast tuning and the "inner
dial" for fine tuning. The 12/24hr clock, timer and illuminated lcd display
just fill out a fine basic radio overall. I'm very happy with my S350.

bought one and told the clerk that I was going to test it outside in
the parking lot and if it didn't perform correctly, then I would swap
it out for another one they had. One time I think I went through all 4

(none of them are, its just a matter of which is worst) and "birdies."

HI, Jim,
If you're not seriously into AM/MW DXing, then the extra tuning aids of the
S-350, such as adjustable RF gain, better narrow bandwidth filter, and fine
tuning knob, not to mention exact digital frequency readout (not digital
tuning), won't matter much to you. However, bear in mind that if you see
and play with these things, you might decide that they are nice features to
have, even if you use them only occasionally.
If you want even casual, occasional shortwave broadcast listening, the GE is
not even an option.
If you use only what's available in the radio itself, the GE, with its more
powerful amplifier, 9-volts / six batteries, compared to the S-350's 6-volt
/ four-battery, system, and the GE's larger woofer speaker in a larger
cabinet, will have the better sound, especially on your strong local
most-music FM station, whatever that might be. YOu can plug in standard RCA
left and right channel cables and hook the S-350 to the audio inputs or Aux
inputs of a stereo receiver or amplifier and get your FM from the S-350 in
stereo, and using possibly larger, better speakers and more powerful
amplifier of that other system, thus making the S-350 another external
tuner. You can't do that with the GE. Oh, you could plug it in through the
headphone jack of the GE and still get monaural sound through your other
stereo system.
While music on AM (medium wave broadcast) band, and on FM will sound better
on the S-350, the somewhat more limited, yet still crisp and clear, audio
frequency range of the S-350 might be an advantage over the GE's audio
output for some voice-only programming, especially on fairly distant, noisy,
AM broadcast stations at night, or during Stormy weather conditions.
If you're going to carry the radio around, the slightly smaller more compact
design of the S-350 might be an advantage, and the weight difference is even
greater when you compare both radios with a full load of heavy-duty alkaline
batteries.
The GE's built-in power cord which sores away nicely inside the cabinet when
not in use, compared to the S-350's external wall wart AC power supply,
gives the GE its only advantage when considering portability.
If I were going to have only one of these two radios, I'd definitely keep
the S-350, no question about it. The S-350 is simply the better, more
sensitive, more selective receiver, on both MW / AM broadcast, and FM bands
over the GE Super Radio III.
I have owned, and bought for gift purposes, several examples of the GE Super
Radio III since 1995, and I have both your other purchase candidate in both
its Grundig S-350 and Tecsun BCL-2000 versions. I have also owned one of
the original GE Super Radio models, the one without the external antenna
connection. The GE "Super Radio" models don't even come close to the
Grundig S-350 and Tecsun BCL-2000 in any aspect of radio performance except
for FM music audio quality, and I have other portable radios that far
surpass the GE in that department as well.
If you want to cheap out and go for price alone, and you don't care about
DX, and the presence of shortwave doesn't matter, then you'll get the GE
Super Radio III. If you want the better radio, even if you're not going to
DX and don't care about shortwave listening, then get the Grundig S-350,
even if it costs you a little more than the GE. It's a lot more radio for
the money. The S-350's overall construction quality is better than that of
the GE Super Radio, and it does more things better than the GE. It is
better radio value for the money you'll spend for it.

I own both a GE Sradio III and (just obtained recently) an S350. For
AM BCB DX'ing I like the S350 hands down. The GE is a good receiver
but digital readout and in my opinion better selectivity in the S350.
Now...the GE is better for FM dxing if you do any of that. an
excellent receiver if you can find one used is the Sangean ATS803A.

me. I've decided that I will go with the Superadio III. I'm going to
wait until Circuit City cuts the price on the S350 to $50, which they
do every year in my area from what I heard from someone who works at
CC. The only thing that bugs me is that no one sells the SRIII locally
and they won't even order it. It might seem kind of old-fashioned, but
I've always been able to buy things locally until the SR III. I have a
few questions:
1) I've already got a few responses from others on this question, but
I'll throw it out to everyone. What is the most reputable mail-order or
online place to buy the SR III? What I mean is as far as customer
satisfaction, return policies, few hassles, etc.
2) I haven't ordered anything ever, as hard as that would be to
believe. I also don't have a credit card. A few retailers will take
checks or money order. My biggest concern is that if I send the check
or money order to them, it would be lost in the mail. Please forgive me
if this is a dumb question. Is there a "sure fire" way of making sure
the check or money order gets to the store?
3) I may have already have asked this, but does anyone have an
Superadio III that they'd be willing to part with?
I thank everyone again for the help you gave me in making this
decision. Happy DX'ing. :-)

Sangean-built Realistic model in your price range. The SRIII is
definitely sensitive on AM, but it is really touchy to tune in the upper
end of the band and drifts off easily and often. Also, any half-decent
$20 portable AM/FM radio from The Shack is sensitive enough for most
purposes, especially with a hand-wound ferrite antenna booster, or a
simple wire wrapped around the radio and led out for a good length away
from the radio. 9 years ago, I bought my SRIII for $40, and although it
has beautiful sound, it s a pain to use compared to others I own. If you
could come up with a few more bucks, the CCRadio from Crane
(Sangean-built) is excellent at $159. It is digital readout to 1khz.,
and is rock-solid non-drift. Plenty sensitive, and they did a lot of
other things right on this one, such as spacing the slewing keys at 10
khz per jump, which makes it the BEST radio I own for AM/BC
bandscanning.

ago, but Crane did good on it and was entirely polite about it. And this
was about 3 years out of warranty. I'd do business with them again
anytime. As far as Sangean products go, I am an true advocate, having
owned the CCRadio and before that a DX-440 (ATS-803-A) since 1989, which
has played at least 12 hours a day, every single day, and I take it
everywhere I go. Never had a single bit of trouble with it. I compare
these products very favorably with other recievers I own, which include
Yeasu FRG-100, FRG-8800, Lowe HF-225, and formerly owned a Kenwood
R-5000, so I do ave adequate basis for comparison, in other words, the
only junk I own is the GE Superradio III.. I am sorry your experience

really expect to "get any more" stations on one or the other, basic
sensitivity s not and has not been an issue for many years. I put my
DX-440 up against my Kenwood R-5000 with identical antennas and the
DX-440 "got" every weak signal that the Kenwood did. Of course, the
Kenwood blew the DX's doors off in selectivity and strong-signal
capability, and this test was done with intentionally small antennas. My
usual antennas in those days were sloping single-ended wires, 50' at the
high end and running up to 70' long, not including the lead-in. I also
had a 90' Windom dipole (coax-fed) and two Alpha-Delta 60' sloper
dipoles. Your location may well require at least a minimal outdoor
antenna of some kind if you cannot receive anything well enough.

Cuhulin,
A couple of weeks ago or so, you branded me an "asshole" because I
posted some anti-Chuck Harder comments in response to a previous post
from you.
But Mr. Cuhulin, who's the asshole here?
Me or Chuck Harder?
Consider:
1) Chuck Harder's previous network, Liberty Broadcasting, went belly-up
last year;
2) Chuck Harder said in 1995 that Jews (like me, BTW) were infused with
"Jewish greed" and that Wall Street was "all Greenbergs and
Sheinbergs";
3) Chuck Harder lost a $1 million U.S. Department of Labor contract bid
to expand his handicapped-oriented satellite DVB network;
4) Chuck Harder, in 1996, was dropped by the United Auto Workers who
had his program on their United Broadcasting Network;
5) Chuck Harder was once affiliated with the virulently anti-Semitic
Liberty Lobby.
Mr. Cuhulin, am I such an "asshole" for sticking up for my people, the
Jews?
I have NEVER called you an "asshole"; I have never called you an
anti-Semite; I have never insulted you in any way. Indeed, if you

Here's the story as I know it ... in fragmented form ...
Chuck Harder apparently had applied for a $1 million grant from the
U.S. Department of Labor to broadcast & grow his New Abilities TV
network on satellite DVB.
He lost the contract bid, which would have kept his NATV on the air for
three to five years.
He then declared bankruptcy (Chapter 11) and put NATV on e-Bay for
$400,000.
Re his radio program, it's still going, but I don't think it's on any
"conventional" (AM/FM/SW) stations in the U.S. I think it's only on
Internet streaming audio on TalkStar Radio.
As to his program content, it's turned decidedly 1991 ... sounds like
it did back then, with the whole "George Bush is an out-of-touch
elitist" schtick, seasoned w/a healthy dose of Armaggeddon ...
I even heard Chuck say that New York City was a hotbed of violent
crime, crack cocaine, and was so dangerous after dark that the "elites"
who live there (one of whom is a cousin of mine) lock up their gated
penthouses and don't come out until the sun comes up ... all because of
globalism, free trade, immigration, and the fact that almost all the
NYC radio stations broadcast in Spanish ...
Ahhh ... the bad old days of 1991 - Dane Quayl, crack, Harris Wofford,
"mad as he** and not gonna take it anymore," anti-Bush columns from
George Will, Saddam crushing the Kurds, "Pat Buchanan for President,"
$1.09 gasoline, $20 oil, "The Boy From Hope," "F*** the Jews, they

Mr. Cuhulin,
You can call me an asshole; you can call me a Jew-hater; you can call
me every terrible name in the book. But I have got you and the other
"patriots" numbers here.
To wit, you all are a bunch of paranoid schizophrenics.
I'm damn serious here.
You all gave us Pat Buchanan in 1992, 1996, and 2000, and look what
happened - not only here in the U.S. but in Israel too, where the
Knesset ("Parliament") for the first time in its history condemned an
American Presidential candidate - Buchanan - in early 1996.
Here, Timothy McVeigh got so upset over the "patriot" rhetoric he was
hearing from Buchanan, Chuck Harder, the citizen militias, the
anti-immigrant folks, and the "new world order" conspiracy goons, he
murdered 168 of his fellow Americans on April 19,l995.
Question, Mr. Cuhulin: What's the difference between one of these
so-called "patriots" and Osama bin Laden?
Answer: OBL doesn't wave an American flag.
Other than that, there's not much difference. You "patriots" are the
REAL American Taliban!
I've dealt with you all - especially Chuck Harder - since 1980, when I
heard one of your precursors, Lyndon LaRouche, and I have NEVER heard
ANYTHING that made ANY sense from you guys.
And yes, I put David Duke in your column, too.
The HELL with you all!

"Here's the problem ... Jewish families have great respect for
education and they are very close-knit. They launch their kids into the
professions -- they become doctors, lawyers, bankers. And these kids
decided they weren't going to get theirs the old-fashioned way their
parents did. Instead they decided to grab it. And that's where this
whole notion of greed, Jewish greed, comes in. Now Jews are not alone
in this. There's Hispanic greed, black greed, and of course white
greed. But this is why if you go to Wall Street you'll see it's all
Greenbergs, Sheinbergs, and so on."
The author of this horrible quote: Chuck Harder.
No wonder my Jewish friends and relatives call him "Chuck Hitler."

As have my 909 and dx-398. Wonderful sets. 'hulin doesn't appreciate a radio
unless it's on the three dollar disposal table at the local thrift store.
