Re: Thursday, January 15, 2003
I think the 140x beat the 129. They all looked funky. Love the big dials, and the whole feel of those old beasts. The ICF-2010 is pretty much gone from the retail channel now. Only J&R carried it, and it appears to be gone. My shortwave box is a Grundig Satellit 800. I wrote about that big boy and some other stuff around that subject here and here. The Grudig got some bad reviews, but some good ones too. I think it's amazing. FM and AM performance are exceeded by nothing I've ever used. Shortwave is pretty darn good too. The main drawbacks: it's huge, heavy, and doesn't tell you whether it's sucking energy from batteries or the wall. But I don't move it much, so that's cool. There are responses to this message:
