The legend of the famous Yacht Boy 400 lives on in this latest model the
YB-400 Professional Edition. Larry Magne, Editor-in-Chief of Passport to
Worldband Radio says the YB-400PE is "... the best compact shortwave
portable we have tested." Coverage is complete including long wave (144
- 353 kHz), AM band to 1710 kHz and shortwave from 1711 to 30000 kHz. FM
stereo is provided to the headphone jack. A thumb wheel knob on the side
of the radio provides smooth single sideband (SSB) tuning. The
illuminated digital display provides tuning resolution at 1 or 5 kHz on
shortwave. Two bandwidths are featured. The narrow position affords
maximum selectivity, or the wide position may be chosen for best audio
fidelity. The keypad will quickly get you to any frequency or store up
to 40 of your favorite stations in the presets. The presets may be
accessed directly or you can scan through them by using the radio's
second set of UP/DOWN buttons. The YB-400PE can also frequency search.
The dual digital clock is visible while the radio is playing. Other
refinements include: snooze and sleep buttons, lock, HI/LOW tone switch,
LOCAL/DX switch, and 9/10 kHz MW scan selection. External jacks are
provided to earphone (3.5 mm), antenna (3.5 mm) and 9 VDC input. The
