Sharp GF-9494H

Sharp was packed very poorly :-/ But lucky me, everything was ok and working! Even the cassette deck works and came with some Willie Nelson too ;-) Im thinking of making the line-in mod, but first i'll have to try fm transmitter..

Nice additions. Im surprised that 9494 made it in one piece, it looks like it had no packing around it at all.
Yep, it had none.. Just thrown in the box and taped shut. :nonono:

Best looking Sharp
I have to agree

They're both very nice BB's but it really does surprise me that they survived their journey to you intact, packing for both of those BB's was totally inadequate.
In few years collecting, i have never recieved a damaged radio. Even with a crappy packing. Finnish postal system :bow:

Yup, even without good cleaning, that Sharp is almost mint. Only has a small imperfection below the tuner scale.

Very nice pair...the 9494 looks the classiest but the 850 sounds better (I have both). Why do you need to do a line in mod on the 9494?...has phono and mixer inputs both of which work :-)
