[@urbanodagrippino8433]

[@SweeneyTTodd]

Thank you for watching, glad you found the video interesting Best regards Shaun

[@hassanrasool6515]

Vary cool...thanks

[@migsvensurfing6310]

Just subbed 👍

[@andygozzo72]

nice beasts those hackers, i have a RP37 FM model AND its matching MW/LW brother RP35

[@andygozzo72]

and all original capacitors, as with most of my many transistor sets, you dont need to 'blanket' replace them,regardless, you know, they last much longer than many people think...

[@andygozzo72]

one 'problem' with these and many similar age sets is they only go up to about 100mhz

[@andygozzo72]

never yet come across a 'harrier' model...

Hi Shaun, I’m new to the hobby and already I can tell that the Herald is by far the better audio. The batteries in the Harrier will go in, it just depends which way round the batteries are. I know they look symmetrical but .... they are slightly different! Great vid ..... see you at the beach! 🏄🏻‍♂️

[@SweeneyTTodd]

Totally agree , i do think the modern PP9 batteries are perhaps slightly bigger than the original ones Glad you enjoyed the video , was a bit of fun this one ! Best regards Shaun

[@soldierloz]

@@SweeneyTTodd Shaun, what do you think of the Herald? What do you like about it?

[@SweeneyTTodd]

@@soldierloz One word "sound" they sound great

[@Theoobovril]

ELF= Extremely Low Frequency....LF= Low Frequency.....MF= Medium Frequency....HF= High Frequency....VHF=Very High Frequency....UHF= Ultra High Frequency....SHF= Super High Frequency....EHF= Extremely High Frequency... SHF can sometimes found to be called UUHF which stands for Ultra-Ultra High Frequency.. The RP37A sounds miles better, Shaun, nice interesting video. A full moon tonight so the Werewolves will be out and about...Howellllll...oooops..

[@radiorobertakaandy5982]

Nice tutorial comparison vid shaun .shame as I dont have either lol .made me laugh a few times too.that harriers back door wouldn't stay shut would it 🤣bring me sunshine .....good old morecambe and wise .great song

[@zx8401ztv]

You should of said at the end ' If someone was attacking you, What radio could you throw at them to knock them out?' Yes the old hacker rp37 would silence there attack with no trouble lol. Portable means it has a handle :-D , i have a cast iron signal generator, it's very portable with two handles. It makes me squeak when i try to lift it. Vhf = Very High Frequency, and Frequency Modulation is the mode, most people say F.M as 88 to 108 mhz is boring lol.

[@Tobinindustrial]

I like the Herald radio. It sounds better.

[@raceingdemon6464]

Agree Shaun Although I Love My Harrier My 2 Vhf Heralds Sound Better For Sure The Every Ready Batteries Fit Ok in My Harrier The Panasonic PP9 Might Be a Bit Too Big Me Thinks You Can Bend The Clip Retainers a Bit So The Back Stays On Better !!..Lovely Work As Usuall Shaun..Regards mike.

[@mikeatlantis6843]

Definitely the herald for me no question.have a rp30 am set and that sounds good too.herald Vs Hunter next

[@davidroberts965]

Great demo Shaun To me you can’t beat the sound from the Herald mine is certainly is better than my Sovereign Keep up the good work Dave

[@GeorgeChristofi]

yep, the older one sounds nicer for sure.

[@mannysanguena7900]

VHF = very high frequency. UHF = ultra high frequency.

[@Nathan1975Liggy]

To be honest I thing the Hairier sounds better

[@radiorobertakaandy5982]

Prefer the vhf herald .older is best .

[@chunky169]

Fk the battery's
