Product Description

With the Grundig G6 Aviator at your side, you'll always have great listening options. Tune in to AM, FM, aircraft band or shortwave frequencies easily with direct keypad entry. Use the multiple tuning features to quickly scan or browse stations. This portable radio only weighs about 7 ounces, so you can always have your favorite stations at hand. The international clock and wake-up alarms keep you on schedule, wherever your travels take you.

Long-Range, Portable Flexibility.

The Grundig G6 Aviator brings you coverage of all medium-wave and shortwave frequencies, as well as FM bands. Specifically, it covers three frequency ranges. The 520kHz to 30MHz frequency range grants access to the entire AM band and shortwave broadcasts with single-sideband tuning. This far-reaching frequency range puts you in touch with news and entertainment from across the world, and also allows reception of ham radio operators, maritime and shortwave aeronautical stations.

The 88MHz to 108MHz band covers traditional FM radio, and the G6 Aviator passes its stereo signal through to the convenient headphone jack. Additionally, this radio also receives the 117MHz to 137MHz National Civilian Aeronautical Band, letting you monitor multiple aircraft communication frequencies.

The one I received won't work on batteries, but it does sometimes will with the wall wart. The AM reception is lousy, I guess you get what you pay for. I've noticed the price as low as fifty dollars and as high as a hundred. Grundig should be ashamed ! You want a good radio ? I have a Sony 7600D - it's fantastic, found it in like new condition on Ebay. Oh, and of course the latest rendition of the 7600 series is made in you know where. How it performs I don't know.

I am not really satisfied with the G6 aviator,especially in the AM range, reception does not eliminate static,so only close and powerful stations can be listened to.My regular household radios perform better.
FM is flawless.
