is a small AM portable radio that is powered by a 9-volt battery. It has
an earphone jack and external power jack. I believe it originally came
out in the mid 80s. It is a true Heathkit in all respects (not something
packet by Prokit in Taiwan, like the more recent kits were). Its manual
was written by experienced Heathkit manual writers.</font> <font size=-1>Now
for those of you who are critical of everything the company does, this
is not a redesign or an old product brought back to life. The company has
been selling it all along through our educational reps (educational courses
is what the company does now, and quite well thank you) as a starter kit.
If you don't want one, don't buy one! I only intended to let those of you
know that there are a number of them available if you do.</font> <font size=-1>Randy,
