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.
