Default INFO - Newest - "REDSUN" Model RP2100 AM / FM / Shortwave Radio

What I find interesting is that the "imageshack" photo shows a power
cord plugged into the left side of the radio. That would mean that it
has
an internal transformer for AC power instead of using an external
wall-wart pwer supply. That would account for a lot of the physical
size (& weight) of the radio. However, that also means that it is set
up for Chinese AC power (220 VAC?) and thus wouldn't be as easy
to use here in the US as the models with wall-wart power that simply
allow substitute wall-warts for different local voltages.

Importing one of these with the Chinese labelling wouldn't be as
rewarding as it was getting the Degen models before they came out
as English-labelled "Kaito"s (with the US power supplies), since
you'd have to forgo completely using it on AC power (unless you
also got or had a transformer power adapter).

73, Will
