Oh dear!!!! This looks like a great teaching tool with a detailed instructions manual BUT someone already soldered 90% of the project!

Arrived on schedule. Assembly took about 2 hours. Picks up many FM stations but the sound is not high fidelity. Soldering is snap because the solder pads are large.

This kit is very complete. The instructions are well written with lots of photos. The components are the best identified of an kit I've seen so far. I would recommend for anyone who wants to build a radio. !

In terms of difficulty it’s rather simple to put together. I got this for me and my son to put together and it was fun! It was finished a few months ago still works like a charm!

I made this with my 6 year old son. He is super into tech, so this was something he enjoyed a lot. I had to do most of soldering (I let him do one then decided that was going to end up a disaster). Anyway, great purchase & recommended (assuming you have a soldering iron and kinda know how to use it lol).

I ordered this radio kit as a a fun project for my son and his grandpa to work on, however it didn't work. I ordered another one to try and assemble it again, but unfortunately it didn't work the second time as well. Very disappointing.

I leaned to solder with this kit and everything went according to plan!It is easy to understand, the parts are well documented.It took me 3 hours to complete and it worked the first time I turned it on. :)Nice project.
