Jeff is displeased with Sangean buttons
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Jeff McMahon, who writes:
After my wife complained about our Sangean radio button problems, I made this post:
Our Sangean radios are good performers for FM reception and speaker sound. They are reasonably priced. For user-friendly radios to use throughout the house, the kind that my wife and daughters enjoy using, Sangean is the best bet.
However, for me a general use Sangean is not my first choice. Because I am an FM reception fanatic, I prefer more of a high-performance radio, the kind that has an SW port, so I can connect a wire antenna to the radio, which usually results in improved FM reception. That's why I have a Grundig G4000A next to my bedside table. But for the rest of my family, it's a Sangean affair.
However, I should point out a consistent flaw, one that my wife complained about this morning: Three of four of our Sangeans have button problems.["]
