Red Wave Radio

900 U.S. dollars....isn't that about half of what the R8500 goes
for?  and it goes to 2.6 GHz instead of stopping at 2 GHz like the
R8500.

I read that it has some shortwave broadcast stations preset into
memory.  Does anyone know how many?  Any idea of scan speed?  Sure
hope this is a good wideband.
