hello how much did it cost?

I have one of these receivers. The radio has good audio. They like to overheat.

I used to own a Kenwood R-5000 back in the late 1980's and early 90's. Good receiver. The only thing I did not like was the lack of good bass and fuller and higher Fidelity sound, etc for listening to shortwave broadcasting stations or AM dx'ing compared to my old Grundig Satellit 500 and Satellit 800 receivers, but, but, overall, the R-5000 had good selectivity and is ideal for communication monitoring such as amateur radio, data communications, RTTY, PSK-31, CW, etc.
