I worked at RS when this unit was new. These RS 'hi-power' units competed very well with the Craig Power-Play units, easily 20W @5%thd per channel, for Led Zepplin, Jethro Tull - 'Minstrel In The Gallery' in my car. Head phone jack! Speak up, please. Good luck with sale ~
As an FYI, that tape player, catalog number 12-1810, appeared in the 1979 and 1980 Radio Shack catalogs. Below is the 1980 entry. The price was the same both years, $99.95, which is equivalent to about $300 in 2018 dollars.
Hi Jaunty75. Thanks for that information. That's pretty cool you were able to find that. I would sell it for $95 including shipping. If I didn't have my olds 8 track i would probably use it. Its pretty cool. Al
