It looks like a new, large portable radio — along the lines of the Redsun RP2100 — is on the way. At least this one includes a direct-entry keypad and SSB, like the RP3100 is supposed to.<\/p>\n

I hope they can do good QC, and keep the sample to sample variation low.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks, Gary. It does look like a variation of the of the RP3100. Sounds like it’s not a Redsun product, but may have been ported from one of their engineers for JiDian. It certainly has the trademark look. If this is true, there’s a possibility that C.Crane could bring this to North America. Perhaps it’s the next radio in line to succeed the CCRadio SW? \u00a0Though a great radio, the CCRadio-SW is getting a little long in the tooth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
