Hello Again Lucky,

If you purchase a Sat800 from Universal and ask them to inspect and
test the particular unit they will be sending you, they will do so and
you will have no quality problems whatsoever. They do not even charge
for this service. In my experience over many years, Universal is a
first-class company. While they may not always be the "cheapest," the
services they offer in conjunction with the sale more than make up for
any small difference in price.

Best,

Joe

Hi Joe

and thank you for the reply. Yes, it is an all around radio for sure. I'm
still looking at it. I can tell you this. Once I get a "bug" to buy a radio,
it's gets bought sooner or later. I love the way the radio looks for sure
and I like the fact it has FM. It's very helpful really. I don't listen to
FM that much but when I do, that's means I need the music!

The quality build does concern me. For almost 5 bills I don't want to hear
about wobbly knobs I can tell you that. This is a radio I need to see and
hear first. Maybe I'll check out one of the dealers in downtown Miami. There
are tons of electronic radio shops there.

In the end Joe I'll probably have one in my collection soon. You know, I
need another new room altogether just for my radios and computer equipment!
I wish I could just buy a new radio every month. I'd try out a Racal for
kicks.

All the best wishes to you Joe. You're a thoughtful kind person.

Lucky
