And Now I Have Three
I think I'm done buying R-300s. I found the European ham band version. I was actually pretty excited about that- I assumed finding one would be very difficult, as it wasn't intended for the American

Re: Getting Another R300
So, the "new" R-300 arrived and though it's cosmetically nowhere as nice as my other one, I believe it's better electronically. The audio is better, at least on first listening. It's also very close

Re: Got My R-300
Cosmetically, the Realistic DX-200 is remarkably similar but when you take the covers off, that's where it all ends. The inside of a DX-200 is amazingly sparse. It's naturally much lighter than the

Re: Got My R-300
I didn't find the other group, but this one showed up when searching the web whilst waiting on FedEx to bend my tuning shafts!? I hate Ebay.

Re: Got My R-300
Nice to hear ppl are still keeping these things going. Mine has been gone for ages but if I find one at a sale cheap enough it'll be on the desk and stay there. On the lack of activity and members
