DROOL! Now THAT'S the look and layout of a REAL RADIO. None of this
damn bumping-through-the-microprocessor-menu crap.


Kind of like my R7 in a way, but most likely not the same build quality.


Much better, actually. The R7 is a great radio, but it's a tin box
compared to that JRC and almost any JRC radio ever made.


I briefly had a NRD-515 with the NCM-515 frequency and NDH-515 memory unit
that I picked up via the 'Ham Trader Yellow Sheets' (some might remember that)
for a song. Split the set up and resold it. That had to have been pre-1994.

I just didn't care for the audio on the JRC's.
