Amazon.com Product Description
If you love to hear broadcasts from around the world, here's a tool that makes it fun and easy. The Grundig Yacht Boy 300PE features precise AM, FM, and shortwave tuning via a digital PLL system. Plus, because it weighs in at 13 ounces and measures less than six inches across, this radio is easy to take along wherever your travels take you.
Design and Controls
The 300PE's integrated speaker offers pleasing sound while a built-in antenna on the top of the device handles FM and shortwave reception. The front of the unit features a large LCD display that shows frequency, time, sleep time, and symbols for the sleep timer and alarm activation. The display can be temporarily illuminated for night viewing. A keypad below the screen allows illustrious shortwave listeners to directly enter their shortwave band of choice, giving instant access to known broadcasts. Other controls on the front panel include band selection, clock settings, push-button up/down tuning, and scanning. Meanwhile, the back of the radio sports a flip-out tilt stand.
Tuning and Bands
With support for AM (520-1710 kHz) and FM-stereo (via the headphone jack) plus shortwave from 2.3-7.8 and 9.1-26.1 MHz, the 300PE's digital tuner offers exceptional tuning accuracy. AM band tuning is in 9 or 10 kHz steps, which is selectable via a switch inside the battery compartment, while shortwave tuning is in 5 kHz steps. A DX/local switch lets you switch between short and long range AM broadcasts. In addition to the direct frequency entry method, rapid tuning is possible with the quick station scanning function. You can also store up to 24 memories so you can access your favorite stations with ease.
Connections and Power
The 300PE operates on three "AA" batteries, or via AC power. A 3.5 millimeter headset jack is provided, as is an external antenna jack for enhancing shortwave and FM reception.
Extras
The radio's built-in 24 hour clock features an adjustable sleep timer that turns the radio off after a set interval. In addition to an AC adapter, the radio ships with a handsome vinyl carrying case, batteries, a pair of stereo earphones, and an external wire antenna.
