Kevin and Steve, The eBay seller "dpmega" has been one of the quickest shippers of cheap analog portables like the Tecsun R9012 and R911, at least to me. Also, the Tecsun R1210 sensitivity specs on MW actually are worse than on the R9012 and other Tecsun analog models (namely <1.5mV/m for the R1210, versus <1.0mV/m for the R9012, R911 and others). This indicates some component substitution in the R1210 resulting in reduced MW performance-- the main reason I didn't order one of these models myself. 73, Gary In a message dated 3/25/2009 9:29:00 A.M.

Hi Steve: I ordered a Tecsun R-1210 from DPMega a few days ago (a week?) from seller "DPMega", who seems to take a few days longer to ship than "tquchina". This is based on an earlier order from DPMega which arrived about two weeks after I ordered it. As far as I can tell, DPMega is the only seller that has the 1210. I sorta doubt that anyone has received an R-1210 yet, since it was only recently realized that, according to Tecsun's curious way of quoting specifications, it may potentially have a better tuner than other Tecsun models. I will know how good it is in a few days when I receive it, and will let the group know if in fact the specs that Tecsun quotes are accurate, and if the tuner (at least the AM side) is the same as the 911 et al. For less than 10 dollars, I'm willing to roll the dice...
