Query: My best friend in the Peace Corps

I may not get many "helpful" votes for this review, but I have to say that I love my Grundig. I got this radio prior to going to West Africa in the Peace Corps in 2003, and it probably saved my sanity. I played the BBC World Service about 6 hours a day for two years, and only had to replace the first one after I knocked a huge glass of water onto the first one while trying to swat a fly. (That was a very unhappy day.) I still have number two, still travel with it all the time, and use it as my clock-radio at home. I got great reception on the shortwave stations while in Africa, and great FM here in the US. I love the lock feature which saves my batteries when the radio is packed, but agree with another reviewer that the antenna could be improved. The included "external" antenna seemed to make absolutely no difference most of the time.
