On a similar topic, it appear as if Sangean has stopped manufacturing the
ATS 818, at least it appears that the 818 (without the cassette recorder) is
no longer available at most SW stores.
The 818ACS is still around however.

Hi.

A few years ago I bought a Roberts RC818 for £50. I think the original
buyer paid £200. Anyway, is this radio rated good or what?

Beter than good; excellent.


Is this really a re-badged Sangean radio?

Yes.

If it is, do you know what Sangean
model it was?

818 (really).


Were any mods published?


I think there are some mods but I like the 818 just the way it came. Sweet
radio and /very/ good on sideband.

If you need info, the manuals are available at RadioShack.com. The DX-390
is
the 818 without cassette recorder and the DX-392 is the 818 with recorder.


TIA.

Rich.
