No thanks to screwbay, now you can't touch an RF-2200... at least I can't on

Be careful! Some here are going to accuse you of being on welfare.

Damned collectors ruin it for the little guy. rage

I wouldn't be so quick to jump on a Tecsun, remember the Grundig 800 was
made by Tecsun and the quality problems that had.

Out of curiosity I opened up my RP-2100 and it has more cold solder joints
than I could count. Nice radio but very poor workmanship... I pretty much
think it'll die after a couple years and I'll be resoldering everything.
From a solder joint perspective, I'm suprised it works at all.

Not like my 1959 Royal 1000 that still sports shiny solder joints... what we
used to be able to build here.
