Hi.

A few years ago I bought a Roberts RC818 for £50. I think the original
buyer paid £200. Anyway, is this radio rated good or what?


Beter than good; excellent.


Is this really a re-badged Sangean radio?


Yes.

If it is, do you know what Sangean
model it was?


818 (really).


Were any mods published?



I think there are some mods but I like the 818 just the way it came. Sweet
radio and /very/ good on sideband.

If you need info, the manuals are available at RadioShack.com. The DX-390 is
the 818 without cassette recorder and the DX-392 is the 818 with recorder.


TIA.

Rich.
