Looking for a review of this radio or comments from those who are familiar
with it.. Does anyone know of a source of more information on it? When was
it produced? What did it sell for?

The original product was the Sony ICF-2001. Later, Sony licensed the design to
other Asian manufacturers, on of which produced a Radio Shack version. I
bought my DX-400 in 1985 in Pontiac, Michigan for $65.00. I still use it.

The RS version of the 2001 had many of the problems of the original corrected,
except for the bizarre 3 kHz step interval. The Sony was famous for going
through fresh set of "D" cells in a few hours.
