Product Description

Amazon.com

The Grundig Executive Traveller, a pleasingly small, efficient device, is an alarm clock and shortwave radio that delivers the world's stations with amazing clarity. Short-wave enthusiasts will love the compact size and power, and others will enjoy fiddling with the left-hand dial as static gives way to a panoply of languages and music. The tiny, four-inch-tall radio comes enclosed in a soft leather protective wrap that includes slots for business and credit cards. The radio can be detached from its case to slip in a pocket or backpack, and users can listen through earphones (the sporty kind that are the size of a dime) or through the radio's own built-in speaker. While many items bill themselves as being designed for travelers, Grundig's handheld shortwave is truly useful, allowing instant access to the music and news of the world. Requires two AA batteries for operation. If you want to learn more about world-band radio, check out Passport to World Band Radio, 1999 from International Broadcasting Service. --Jennifer Buckendorff

2.0 out of 5 stars Cool design, mediocre performance, July 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Grundig G4 World Recorder Black (Electronics)
The Grundig G4B is a good example of flash over substance. The radio is nicely designed, comes with a sharp leather case- when you whip this baby out, everyone will be impressed with your cosmopoliatan Euro-cool. Less impressive is the performance of this radio. Tinny audio, only fair fidelity on FM, and shortwave performance is pretty dismal. Sensitivity to weak signals is mediocre, selectivity (ability to separate closely-spaced stations) is poor, and the shortwave bands are full of noise from the internal synthesiser. If you really want to hear what shortwave has to offer, spend a little more and get a Grundig YB-400 or Sangean ATS 909.

3.0 out of 5 stars Previous review is of a different radio, June 5, 2008

Shoeless Joe (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grundig G4 World Recorder Black (Electronics)
The previous (and first) review (Cool design, mediocre performance, July 13, 1999) of the G4 is no doubt a review of the discontinued Grundig Executive Traveler G4, not the new Grundig World Recorder G4 (the World Recorder did not exist in 1999). Currently there do not appear to be any reviews of the G4 World Recorder.

I do not own either radio. My rating is based merely on the fact that Grundig's documentation and specifications fail to mention at what bit rate (Kbps) the G4 will record and the fact that the recording bit rate (i.e. recording quality) is apparently not selectable as there is no mention of it in the user manual.
