I went through too much hassle getting it, the first one was stolen off my
back steps, I expected to come home from college and hook up and play with a
new radio and instead I had to put in an insurance claim with UPS, luckily
HRO was nice and sent out a new one before UPS got done with the paperwork,
but after all that, I'm here when UPS comes always and I'm not getting rid
of that radio any time soon. It's a very good radio, I ran the thing daily
and it never once complained.
