No Dewayne unfortunately. I heard to much about the terrible quality
control
and wobbly knobs that come off and all sorts of other things. So, I didn't
want to take a chance on buying one off Ebay and bought the R75 with the
last $500 allocated for a radio. Perhaps one day I'll buy a brand new one
from Universal.

Right now I need to be a little tight with my money.

The $400 rebuilt ones from Universal were OK.


Shoot, I got a new one from Universal, bench tested and all, and it still
has problems. The tuning knob wobbles and is intermittent. But I still enjoy
my SAT 800 a lot! One of these days I'll send it to Drake.

My brother's headphone jack was dead. They turned it around very
quickly and made him feel better about mankingd in general.

They are fine radios for $400.
