Dear Marvin
Thank you very much that you name us addidions to radio models. In principle it is very well done to first go to the model and then use the link to add data via forum which then also sticks to the model page. This way is taken for a repar report or for discussion, questions etc. about the set or model in general.

I hope I may explain to you the better way for bringing in data, since in a forum text it is not really fitted into the model page.

As a member you see also an other link on that link bar you used, called "Suggest change". Please click it and enter the data into the given form. After that you click GO and after a check you click another GO.

Two model admins then will revise and if OK will accept. Then your data is integrated to the model. Please never individual "data" for a given set but "only" for a general model. For instance you would not bring in the serial number (only the chassis number).

If anything is doubtful or wrong then you will get a notice from an admin - but he can only deny or accept. In worst case he denies and you propose again a better entry. You can see the processes pending by clicking "Administrators" on the Search Page (HP).

In your example you have mentioned the models parameters as necessary -  great. Can you try to add it to the model? I think you have also added information to other models via forum ...

It seems that RDU209 is "only" generic and your set is RDU209-227. If we don't know the difference(s) then we will leave it as it is. For many models we seem the only ones who are named by searching engines like Google. You might enter your collector price by using that link on the model page too. We only have listed an old one.
