Value of rare shortwave radio
 
That's a very rare beast. $100 would be stealing it. I'd easily guess some
rather wealthy foreign collector would be willing to pay several times that,
if not more, for one in excellent shape.

It would compete with the Panasonic 2200 through 2900 radios for
functionality if not performance. It's an unknown brand of shortwave
radios which may actually limit it's attraction to collectors. If it
is Japan made then you might find more collector interest in Japan,
possibly on the Japan Yahoo site. On ebay it's possibly worth $100.00

It's really no different than the Panasonic, indeed I would not be
surprised if they made it. But yes, I agree that a "foreign
collector" would likely find it interesting. That "foreign collector"
would not have to be "wealthy" to afford a moderate radio and my guess
is that he would be in Japan.
