I have the exact same model in mint condition in a box here in the USA - seems I should plug it in sometime.

Just a tip. R 2122 Never power it lower than 12 Volts. The powersypply got very hot. Up to 24Volts is best.

Just obtained a R-2122 SAILOR -- have yet to power it up...

[@peroleable]

I think it was intended for duplex but correct me if i am wrong. I am using it for receicer only.

What kind of antenna you had connected?

[@peterandersen4676]

Discone antenna, not an HF antenna. Pretty much just a vertical stick outside.
