Good Things Come In Small Packages
You can spend a lot of money on a very small shortwave radio. If you want to do that, check out the Sony ICF-SW100 or ICF-SW07. Those excellent radios will cost you $350 to $500, and they do offer a whole host of features and "toys." They're also fragile and complex.
But if what you want...

It will leave you wanting something better
It's hard to bash this little radio because it is so cute and inexpensive. And what can you really expect for under $40CAD? Still, I can't help but wonder if shoppers wouldn't be better served with something twice the money, twice the size and a lot more satisfying. I received this radio as a gift... Read full review »
Mini and skinny Shortwave radio
This is a review of the Grundig mini 100 PE shortwave radio. It can be purchased at a very low cost of about 20 to 40 dollars online. The radio is very tiny less than the size of a pack of cigarettes. It looks like Grundig makes another more expensive version of this radio that is gold in color and... Read full review »
Nice improvement over the Mini 100PE
I initially stayed away from this radio because of the antenna "protrusion," figuring it wouldn't fit easily into my pocket. Well, it comes with a pouch with a belt loop.
I've had a number of Grundig Mini100s and while I like the portablility, they weren't very sensitive. The Mini 300 is a...

Grundig Mini 100PE
I had one of these: The potentiometer for the volume control died after 50 hours of use. Autopsy revealed an "el-cheapo" component.
FM stereo was superb (ear buds), sound, sensitivity, station separation. Just amazing, I assume the radio uses the quality tuner chip of a Walkman or similar...

Beautiful sound for such a small radio
I saw where one reviewer complained about a "poorly engineered AM band and useless internal speaker." I couldn't disagree more. I am about to buy a 2nd Mini 100 PE, precisely because I love the way it precisely tunes AM stations, and projects an incredibly robust sound through its compact speaker... Read full review »
Had mine 2 days now,
Works like a charm, I am in East Texas and can hear the world. Clear reception, good sound. Speaker rattles some at higher volumes but is expected from such a small unit. Unbelievable stereo F.M. sound with headphones. I am amazed. Truly outperforms my 1939 model Truetone cabinet radio. Read full review »
Shortwave Pocket Rocket, great value
Once I spent $ 360 on a fancy name-brand pocket shortwave radio, only to be disappointed by the mechanical ruggedness of the unit. It broke, and I threw it away because fixing an 8 year old radio didn't seem to make any sense.
Yet, I still wanted something I could take hiking or biking...
