How do you fix the Redsun RP2100?
 

Has anyone tried the Square trade 3 year extended warranty option for $8.99
Just curious, because I needed to return both my DE1103 and DE1107 for a
warranty exchange.

I'm wondering if you are still on the hook for shipping if you opt for the
extended warranty.

I bought this from Liypn as I bought a Degen 1103 from her awhile ago
(which also needs replacing but I don't think that's her fault)

Basically this radio crashes...from what she said is that if it doesn't
turn on it means it's in a constantly loop software wise. First she
says to reset it (which I have on many a time) then she said if it
doesn't work to take out any powersource (AC or battery) and then to
wait 24 hours...reset it and put the batteries in it.

That worked before but then it crashed again.

When the radio works it's fantastic. I bought to replace a Grundig S350
(which is also great however has way too much drift and the wide switch
doesn't seem to work..i.e. I only get narrow...so if it drifts and the
wide function doesn't work it's frustrating)

In terms of what causes this for the Redsun is I thought I heard
something about a static charge...if this is true then this doesn't
take much!

Any help would be greatfully appreciated.

If you bought it directly from China I think it wouldn't include the
shipping just due to the costs alone...

Well technically they ALL will come from china reguardless of the name
on it.

My problem lies more with the respect in terms of repairing it...if
it's DOA I'll just tinker with it...maybe open it up.

On the same note what makes us think that the KA2100 is better
qualitywise than the RP2100?
Kaito is great don't get me wrong I have a 1103 and if it wasn't for
the knob it would be great (it was a early batch and will probably get
another)

Also is there a KA 3000 to come out when the RP3000 comes out? If the
quality is up to kaito standards AND comes with the whole SSB thing
that would be fantastic but it looks like we'll have to wait till the
fall for it

More Chinese made radio crap

YES FOLKS, ANOTHER SATISFIED CUSTOMER COMES FORWARD
WITH YET ANOTHER "TRUE OWNERSHIP EXPERIENCE" OF CHINESE
MADE RADIO JUNK.

YES SIR-REE! YOU HAVE GOT TO LOVE THOSE CHINESE RADIOS.

WHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD BUT CHINA CAN YOU GET:

STRIPPED SCREWS HOLDING THE COVERS IN PLACE, CHEAP LEAD
BASED PAINT POWDERCOATING SPRAYED OVER THE CHEAPEST PLASTIC
POLYMER BASED CASES AVAILABLE, COUNTERFEIT COPIES OF IC
CHIPS, ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS THAT GO DRY AND FAIL WITHIN
ONE YEAR UNDER POWER, TECHNICAL MANUALS THAT READ IN CHINGLISH
LIKE THEY WERE WRITTEN BY A COMPLETE RETARD, KNOBS THAT
FALL OFF OR THE SHAFTS CRACK OR ARE HELD IN PLACE WITH
HOT MELT GLUE OR WAX OR MASKING TAPE, SHARP EDGES INSIDE
THAT WILL CUT LIKE DADDY'S OLD GILLETE RAZOR, POWER CORDS THAT
SMELL LIKE A CHEMICAL FACTORY...AND FINALLY THE EVER-PRESENT
KOOKY BRAND NAMES THEY COME UP WITH.

(Then you folks wonder why these piecess of CRAP sell for so little
money - go figure round eye! PFHBBLTTTT!!!!)

Right now I am listening to my Blaupunkt Derby 691 radio that I bought
from Brian Hill last year.About two or three months ago,I dozed off on
doggy's couch and I had a nightmare.I tipped over the radio and bent the
antenna,it looked like a broke d... dog.When I tried to straigten out
the antenna,it broke.I can always solder it back together with my Bernz
O Matic handheld propane torch.

those cheap Chinese scooters.
