Dreaming of a 'new' Panasonic RF-2200 Radio . . . In Your Future ?
RHF
.
For One and All,
.
If you can find and take a look at the Tecsun Radio Club Room
http://www.tecsun.com.cn/radioclub/images/Pic00029.jpg
(R&D) you will see many old and new Radios there including
the Panasonic RF-2200 Radio.
.
IMHO - The Tecsun BCL-2000 was a step in the right direction
and the Redsun RP2100 is another step along that path . . .
The new Redsun RP3000/RP3100 may be the next step ? ? ?
.
FWIW - Radio-Electronics manufacturing has changed greatly
in the 30 Years from 1977 to 2007 and a 'close-copy' of the
outward appearance and styling may be 'Doable" by the insides
will be cost effective and very different.
.
Now Back To The Panasonic RF-2200 Radio :

Yanno?
I have a grundig 300pe, amongst others, $29.95 from radio
shack--probably paid too much. I like it. Hooked up a homemade balun
to match the ~75-100 ohm long wire to the whip (2000 ohms+, most likely)
works like a charm. Now the icom, which I picked up at a estate sale
for $100.00 (stole it really) is a better machine--but I use the grundig
so much more--and is so many places ... I pity idiots which pay
more--but for them, there is always ebay.

after I bought the radio, it started drifting.Tune the big tuning knob
to a station, let go of it and you can see the knob move a little bit,
only way I can keep it on station is to wedge a piece of cardboard under
it.And not long after that the radio wouldn't turn on at all unless I
shave down a piece of little plastic to use as a wedge and push the
wedge between the earphone jack and the plastic cabinet, other than
that, I have never used the earphone jack before, it started acting
buggy on it's own.Not one of Panasonic's better radios, in my
opinion.Panasonic should have called those radios the Wedge Radio.

a disability income. Damned collectors ruin it for the little guy. <rage>
I wouldn't be so quick to jump on a Tecsun, remember the Grundig 800 was
made by Tecsun and the quality problems that had.
Out of curiosity I opened up my RP-2100 and it has more cold solder joints
than I could count. Nice radio but very poor workmanship... I pretty much
think it'll die after a couple years and I'll be resoldering everything.
From a solder joint perspective, I'm suprised it works at all.
Not like my 1959 Royal 1000 that still sports shiny solder joints... what we
used to be able to build here.

If Panasonic produces a new RF-2200, I would definitely be
interested. Mine was stolen from my hotel room in 1992.
