Palstar RC30A
Added 28th August 2008
Palstar RC30A The R30CC is back as the R30A!

The digital display used in the R30 was discontinued by our supplier without warning, so we had to redesign the control board to use a different display module. While we were at it, we increased the size of the front panel to allow the use of larger pushbuttons, and we recessed the tuning knob. We also changed the tuning rate of the Up/Down buttons from 500KHz per step to 100 KHz per step. The result is the R30A -- same stellar performance, slightly different package.
