(A nice radio with one big surprise)!

Sanyo was founded in 1947 and became a large manufacturer of electronic products and component parts. They made many radios not only under the Sanyo name but under many other names as well. It is common to look inside a vintage radio and find the name Sanyo inside, sometimes as the manufacturer of the entire radio and sometimes on the internal components as well. The RP-8700 was sold between approximately 1975-1978 and was an all-out effort to offer a quality multiband portable. Some users report it is a world-class radio and in some ways it is although not in the ways most people have noted.
