“Great instruction manual with the exception of stating that the last capacitor (labeled 0) in the set is optional / not necessary. Surprisingly high quality speaker, very loud, clear reception as well. Lot of fun putting this together. The manual is a full guide not only for assembly, but for for understanding the circuit theory and how everything works. Definitely going to buy more from this company.”
“The packaging looks cheap so if you giving it as a gift, maybe you will want to have a gift box handy. My son is looking forward to putting it together with the soldering kit he received for Christmas.”
“This kit was fun and easy to assembly. The instruction were easy to follow and are straight forward. All the parts were included and labeled so if you follow the steps you can't go wrong. And for a kit radio it plays extremely well the audio is nice and clear.”
“- Instructions clear. Built working radio.- Instructions are also a lesson on Radios which was cool and I will eventually read it for that.- The battery holder scares the hell out of me when I have to place and take out a battery. No idea how this could be be fixed, maybe after a couple replacements the contacts will loosen up?- *the potentiometer is hungry for solder.”
“Let’s be honest. Soldering isn’t easy without a bunch of practice. That said, the directions were easy to follow and clear enough to understand. Take on the challenge.”
“This is not for beginners. If the assembler doesn’t get the soldering iron just right, making the connections is very difficult. In fact I believe I ended up overheating it and the attachments started to separate. Finally gave up”
