Hello to all our listeners! We are currently rebuilding the technology and will be back on air! M21 team

LW will be back 😊 watch this space

👍

Thanks Clint, I see yours is like mine , the little Belka puts it and the Tecsun radios to shame. I still like the RF919 for the huge range up 1 GHZ but they need a firmware update to fix mode selection, chuffing EQ selection on AM , SSB calibration…other than that…👍😀! 73! Have a great day!

Hello. New guy researching receivers, will this unit get Air and Marine bands?? Thanks for your videos

Thanks so much for the reply I now have a tecsun PL368 strange looking radio but seems to work with all functios but seems a lttlle incensitive to me??? Anyone else have one???

I love the audio output on these and it works like a dream and as you said,simple lay out....i managed to buy one at a rally from a very reputable guy...18 months ago for a similar price that you paid ..... excellent bit of kit. I've owned an R2000 for about 40 years ...i missed out on a mint condition R600 last year for again,a similar price but didn't have the cash on me ..blast 😂

There's a difference between spot on and just about spot on. On my unit, the error is as high as 120 hz

i get no difference with tuning the ant tuner on internal even though it's highlighted.

I make my living staring at computer screen. Should I do the same at home, in the evenings? I rather CW and FF.

At least it can be calibrated.

Sounds ok to me sir

That's interesting. No muting when you tune the dial. Is that on ssb only?

That is a busy looking receiver my friend. 73

Just when I said “I’m done, I’m not buying another radio…………”

Hi Clint, thanks for sharing this with us! Can you confirm if the soft muting when search the bands is gone? So no muting anymore? Thanks and let these very informative videos coming! Greetings from Ballater, Scotland.

ive had 3 of these radios with the fine tunig function stopped working completly! Contacted them in China & told me to get a refund. As I did very poor service!!!!

I just tune the Coast Guard HF station near me and it relays the GOES images over HF as part of the maritime wefax. Saves hassle.

Scannerism 🥰 if you scan the 170 range in UK you can hear private detectives watching people.

I have a Tecsun 880 for my Tesla 📻

Grundigs always sounded so "friendly" - just right. Great to see this one still working. So often something has gone wrong over the years.

Does the amp have any protection feedback for SWR, high input, etc?

I just love these old Grundig Radios. I wish they still made Radios like this.

Bought this antenna two years ago, got the 1K watt UnUn. I have a 811 amp should do 500 watts! Sir Paul from Sigma Comm . said the plus kit will not work with high power only 100watts or less. Chow. JohnBoyUtah KJ7TBR

It's about nostalgia 🙃

That’s a nice 📻 radio sounds great

That’s a nice 📻 radio sounds great

Hi Clint, I look forward to your tests with this. It’s certainly an interesting radio and handsome as you say. I recently picked up the desktop version of the TEF6686 for armchair listening, I’m not a FM DX’er but they do work quite well on the other bands. Quite surprised how clear Polskie Radio is on 225 kHz at night just using a Discone antenna for example. The Chinese receivers are coming thick and fast now aren’t they, we’ll all have cupboards full of them soon haha 👍🏼 73 Franco

0:26 the tower mocking ascot 470’s voice 🤣

Does this have USB/LSB? If not that price is crazy.

Great looking radio , reminds me of my very old Sony icf5900 , it’s looks god all rounder . Interesting that the am is a bit narrow , yes it’s sensitive but I hope it some overload with a decent antenna. I also like the bands it has. Yes great to have ant tune option, like u Sony icf2001 I had years ago, I think these is an option with a rotating ant plugs in on the top of the radio . I also understand that it’s got good bass where as majority of radios not bassy . 73s mark

Reminds me of the 70s action man working radio by palitoy .

The 1978 Sanyo RP 8880 has an antenna tuner and also has a two stage X-TAL marker, vastly superior radio to the Sony 2001 imo.

You can get the HanRongDa C-919 version of this radio on line for £175 including shipping.. I don't think that the radio is worth any more than that. You don't get the extra antenna though, that' will set you back an extra £14.

Mine arrived yesterday and it is fantastic and I’m loving it. I bought it for SW as i used to listen to it as a child and have basically not been into the hobby again until last year when i purchased a tiny SDR radio last year. I ordered the same colour as yours because a friend of mine in the early 80’s had a small radio that look similar which i wanted so bad but he’d never swap it or sell it

Careful upgrading the firmware ... it seems to be problematic.

Nice of you to show us the new TOY radio. Now back to the real deal.

Thanks Clint, I bought the Gun metal Gray version on pre-order in May 2024. A bit of a steep learning curve and the early manual needed the update they later uploaded. Happy they sent me the external antenna at no extra charge. I hope the firmware update will be soon sorted out. I prefer the Green model you have, but it wasn’t available at initial release, so therefore, “GunMetalGray”. I find the app handy when in another room to control volume, frequency or to change frequency, much easier to set the alarms and sync the clock for time. My main gripe was changing the antenna settings and controlling the LNA, LPF for SW and MW. I am disappointed that you can’t use SSB mode on MW and LW for QRM purposes. Getting to receive the 10M Ham NBFM band is a pain also since they limit your choice while in SW,MW etc. I prefer the Belka choices over the RF919. Also a minor gripe they left out the 160M band and the temperature is only in Celsius. Well can’t have everything, but love the backlight keyboard for outdoor use ,minimal flashlight (torch) use needed…👍! Have a great day! 73!

Hi again Clint, I have jus seen a RUclips post by Dan Robinson . His 919 BRICKED following an update he applied from Raddy. This has happened to at least one other of his respondent's. Good luck but exercise caution with the update. 73 and GDX.

That receiver is a work of art

would you recommend this for portable use on 40 meters?

Up/Down volume controls annoy me. I want a volume knob.
