My impression is that everyone who knows the G5 feels it is one of the
better radios out of China, period. *Selectivity, front end and sound

I think that Radio Shack is selling the G5 cheap now. * *I'll be

My local RS are all sold out - the managers cannot even recall the
radios.

Same here. Plenty of G6's in stock for 100 bucks.

The new radio is called the G6 and they can't remember the G5?
Sounds like typical management material.
