I have an upgraded RF-2800 for sale. the stock 2800 has several tuned
circuits but no ceramic filter in the wide position. because of this the
skirt selectivity is quite poor. I have inserted a wonderfult LF-D6 filter.
this filter is the best filter I know of for quality SWL work. the nose is
wide and the skirt is tight !! the way it should be ! now this radio licks
butt ! the narrow poition can be engaged if you want, that has not been
eliminated.
the light lever is not original but blends in quite well with the other
button levers. the feet extensions have also been removed and the radio
looks a bit better now. overall condition is very nice.

the 2600/2800 and 2900 radios from panasonic have great sound. it is one of
the few radios I have worked with where upgrading the speaker didn't help
improve sound quality on shortwave, only FM. this unit has the stock
speaker.
the MW performance on this set is very good, I pulled in a lot of MW
stations in a test the other night.

for those not aware of it, this model has digital readout on shortwave only,
the 2900 added MW and FM digital readout. also all three models drift a lot
in the first hour. it is said that panasonic did not use a quality variable
capacitor, I do not know if this is the case, but they added a calibrator so
they must have known !!

price is $100 plus shipping. which I consider a steal. this would make a
great bedside radio or one just for old times sake ~!
