Hello list. This isn't exactly a pc audio question, but I have a Grundig G3 Globe Traveler transistor radio which I use a lot because TV sports broadcasters do too much bsing. Radio broadcasters are more about the game. My problem is this, all the external surfaces have become sticky. Nothing in the house has this curse. How can I get rid of the problem? Also, I need a replacement battery for a Reporter G2 radio. Is there a Grundig support source state side? Thanks Have a great day! Bob Hicks
