I always wanted one because I think they look cool, finally found one. I assume it has a 6900 board in it, but surprisingly little info on the web that I can find. This one works perfectly, looks pretty good. What's the good, bad and ugly about these?

One would think it's a 3600 board but take a peak inside to verify. The 3600 board as in the galaxy 88 and others like it did pretty well on ssb.
 
I've always had a thing for oddball stuff, and you don't see these all that often. Had bunches of galaxy radios so have an idea what it will and won't do. Somewhere I got the idea most of the Superstar radios were sold overseas, but I know there were probably dozens of variations and rebadged pieces of equipment made by a handful of manufacturers.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
