Review: 1996 bought it
2001 still love it - very sensitive - solid as a rock except for the antenna that broke only a few months after I bought it.Great for on holiday and beginning DX-in in style ! worth every penny (or eurocent :-} )

Summary: The war correspondent's radio
Review: Go to a war anywhere and every journalist carries this radio. Every hour on the hour tune in the BBC and find out where the story plays. Incredible quality, perfect design. All it needs is a little crank to wind up a mini generator for those fun places where the guys at the checkpoint steal your AA batteries along with your Marlboros.

Review: I am very disappointed. I could not get good reception in my area. I was trying this product and intended to use it as a Christmas gift for someone who wanted a transitor radio! I want my money back~

Review: I believe this receiver to be the best one for the price. I have had two of these and will probably either buy another or get a replacement antenna for the one I currently own. The only drawback is that this receiver does not remember modes--such as sideband selection. I also collect some sw receivers but like the 7600G the best in this price radio.

Summary: One of The Best Shortwave Portables
Review: I collect portable shortwave radios and have ones from the 60's through those of today. The 7600G is one of the best I've ever used. It has it's drawbacks as do all radios, but the performance is top notch and the sync detection is a treat at this price level. The clock doesn't show when the radio is on and it only has 10 memories per band, but I see those as minor points. You will be happy with this radio for all your AM, FM and SW listining.

Summary: Possibly the best SW receiver for under $200 worldwide
Review: I had the opportunity to compare a Chinese-made (German design) Grundig YB400PE side-by-side with a Japanese-made Sony ICF-SW7600G, both of which were purchased in December, 1999. I had heard lots of good about this Grundig and hadn't heard much about this particular Sony. I was expecting the Grundig to take the prize, but in my opinion, the Sony won hands down. The biggest plus that I'd heard about the Yacht Boy was the great sound. Although the sound wasn't bad for it's size, I can't honestly say that it was much better than the Sony. They both sounded acceptable and very similar to me. Keep in mind that these are not Hi-Fi radios, although you can get stereo sound from the FM band through use of stereo headphones on each unit. Both units function similarly, but the glaring difference in features is that the Sony has the Synchronous Detection circuitry, which in my opinion makes this radio shine over the Grundig since tuning to faint or weak stations and even stronger ones was simplified and easier to hear. Once the Sony locked-on to a signal, you needn't fiddle with any of the fine-tuning settings, in contrast to the Grundig which I found needed semi-constant attention to keep a weaker signal tuned in. Use of the keypad was more certain with the Sony as the slight click of the buttons let you know when you had selected a number. The Sony also only uses 4 AA batteries vs. 6 with the Grundig. The Grundig does include an AC adaptor, which the Sony does not (although $9 at your local Radio Shack will solve this problem). The Sony seemed to have the overall higher quality in materials and workmanship, but was slightly heavier although very solid-feeling. The Grundig felt to be constructed of a lighter-grade plastic which made it feel that it might also be less durable. If your looking for something better than this Sony, be prepared to spend at least $400 and more.

Summary: Great Portable All-band Reciever
Review: I purchased this reciever thru Amazon about two years ago. I take it when ever I travel. It gets great reception at the beach and thru the caribbean and Canada. I like all its features. I also use it as a clock radio when I travel for work. I works well on alkaline and nicad batteries. I tried an off brand power supply, not so good. But between recharing the nicads, I use alkaline batteries, if I need too. This seem to work well. I highly recommend it to anyone who travels, and likes to have a great radio at hand for news, and music.
