I do not see how ALL these Reviews can be SOOO different from MY Yacht Boy 2000. Just got it on EBAY with its Leather Case. This Radio is a Beauty. Great Scanning Feature and SOLID performance. Loud Clear Selective and sensitive. Found practically NO Drift and No inter channel interference. Stations LOCK in and stay locked. Outstanding performance for AM, FM AND Shortwave. I am in the Fort Lauderdale area SO I do have multiple stations to choose locally. Scanning brings in Dozens of Local and Regional Radio Stations. Shortwave brought in Numerous Radio Marti(HERE OF COURSE) loud and clear. Radio Havana Cuba. Various US based Religious Based Programming.Radio China International. This is ALL within less than an Hour. I did use an additional 27 foot piece of speaker wire with an Alligator clip. To be Fair I use this with ALL my small portables. I found sometimes I unclipped and found no drop in performance. For $28.00 including shipping it is an OUTSTANDING DEAL!!! If you find one WITH the LEATHER CASE grab it. Many on eBay with a large range of prices. |

Just... avoid it. | Time Owned: 0 to 3 months. | ||
I had the opportunity to use one of these little radios for a few weeks while visiting some friends out of town, and I have to say... no. Just no. The other reviews describe the general flaws well enough, so I won't belabor the point, but this is simply a lousy receiver. It's not even good for a beginner radio -- it's so unpleasant to use that it would turn off anyone wanting to try it. I mean, you can use a tractor on the highway, and it will eventually get you to your destination... but you'll never do that again. Avoid this one. |

Sharp looking appearance; lacks performance. | Time Owned: 0 to 3 months. | ||
I agree with the general concensus: Awful! Avoid it, seriously! well bult but a piece of Sh[...]t! I'm using this receiver as a loaner, my DX-396 due to heavy usage over the years is finally near it's end. I'll have to coax some more use out of it. The sad part is; or so it seems to me, is that this Radio performs so poorly that it could completely dissuade a new comer from enjoying this educational Hobby. Makes a great paper wieght;or, perhaps door-stop. I am unaware of any simple modification for improving the performance. Avoid it. |

Awful! | Time Owned: 0 to 3 months. | ||
Porsche needs to stick to automobiles. This is a poor excuse for a receiver at any price. Poor audio, dynamic range, selectivity, sensitivity, and user interface. An insult to both names. It was a free gift so, I cannot give it back. |

I have to agree with the majority on this one. I'd purchased one for shortwave BBC reception whilst travelling. Mediocre performance was what I expected and I would have been satisfied with that, it's all I needed, but plain useless is what it is, and that was totally expected from any product bearing the Grundig name. Mine also went back the next day. |

Well built but a piece of junk! | Time Owned: more than 12 months. | ||
Got one for Christmas a few years ago. What a piece of junk. Steer clear of this one boys and girls. Although it seems to be well built whoever designed this garbage (Porsche?)should be ashamed of themselves. |

Useless on SW | Time Owned: 0 to 3 months. | ||
Sears had these on for about $30; I couldn't resist. Although it worked reasonably well on FM, it could only hear three or four SW stations in total (!) on SW. Useless. I took it back for a refund after a few days. |

OK for $29.95 | Time Owned: 0 to 3 months. | ||
When the local Frys Electronics recently marked these down to $29.95 I bought one figuring that a kybd synth SW rcvr would never be cheaper and the P 2000 had good looks too. Well, at $29.95 I am happy but if I had payed what some early adopters paid ($150?) I'd be pissed off. It has lousy selectivity, has image rejection problems, and isnt all that sensitive. My Sony SW 100 just kills the Grundig in every category, but it should as it cost a lot more. I definitely recommend it at $29.95 as an outstanding value, but if you pay a lot more then you are not getting your money's worth. Keep in mind that it is not a genl cvg set (tunes SW broadcast bands only) and has no BFO for SSB or CW. Dr. Porsche simply dressed a pig in nice clothes. |

It is what it is | Time Owned: N.A. | ||
The little Grundig is a little portable that looks cool and does reasonably well at recieving the major sw broadcasts (BBC, Radio Netherlands, Radio Tiwan etc.). Don't expcect it to perform like it's bigger brothers, YB300 and YB400. The mediumwave and fm performance is acceptable. I use the radio at my desk at work and it does a pretty good job pulling in my local mediumwave and fm station through the conrete/steel office building. I also own the Grundig YB4000 and Sony 7600gr. these are far superior radios but I find I reach for the little Grundig Porsche when I go out for the day or on my many business trips. It make a very nice little radio/alarm clock for the hotel stays. I don't find the sound quality as bad as some other reviewers. The stereo fm through headphones is not bad at all. Is the radio worth the retail price? NO, but if you find it on ebay or at Radio Shack at a discount you should get your money's worth. It is what it is, a nice little radio that looks cool, does an ok job and is easy to use and carry. As long as you don't expect it to be a high performance DXing machine with great booming sound you will probably be satisfied. I am for less than $50 including shipping on ebay. |
