Don't know about Ramsey but do a search for North Coutry Radio, good
quality and run and owned by a ham.

Have had some good luck with those I bought. I can't say the same for a
friend of mine. He bought a receiver kit. He put it together and it didn't
work. He brought it to me and I checked all his work. It was fine. I did
some testing. The thing was deaf. We even took it to yet a 3rd party for
their opinion. Same as mine. My friend called the company and they wanted
$70 I believe to test and repair. The damned thing only cost about $30 to
start with. It was a piece of CRAP. G.W.

Of the ramsey kits I have assembled, I have to say I was overwhelmingly
underwhelmed. Save your money.

Ditto...they're marginal quality, marginal design, and marginal (or worse)
performance.

They are probably good kits for a yongster, to get them interested in
radio, or find out how interested they are. But I won't buy any more
of them for serious use.

Only thing is, after assembling the kit then finding out it dosen't work
as described, they may be discouraged.

New to this discussion...

Can anyone suggest other kit manufactures?
