Peter, most of this size look externally similar, but is this an upgraded AR-1733? I have the latter, which was better than average - until battery leakage killed it...

Super Record mode is supposed to be 128kbps, but according to VLC it is actually 320kbps. This was recorded from the V-115's internal radio, there is some noise present on all
