Radio stolen and totally disappeared from the Den !!

First time out of the vault
After years of mutants inactivity I finally decided to play again to Fallout 2 which a bug prevented me to finish a long time ago. I installed it a week ago with Killap patch (extremely good surprised to see that fans were keen to the point of debugging the remaining faults in Fallout) but a huge problem happened to me in the Den. The radio is missing in all my savegames (I save a lot) and impossible to find it after it disappeared from my inventory. I know it must be a child who stole it from me but none of them have it (I check any single child), neither the two salesmen (Flick and the other guy). I even tryed to visit them days after, to kill them, ... no radio in their inventory !! How can I have this radio back ?? Does someone know about this bug ?? I need the radio to give to Vic and I really want to do the game properly with all the XP's etc... Any kind of help would be hugely appreciated... Don't want to start it all over from the beginning just for this f*** radio.
 
I don't think you get any experience for giving him the radio, so you shouldn't worry about that too much and instead just waste Metzger & Co. (this is do-able @ 5 or so and easy if you: 1. steal metzger's shotgun, 2. have a hunting rifle (preferably scoped) w/ small guns @ 120% or so and 3. lock the doors so you can pick off the guys with ease). It isn't worth restarting just to get the radio - unless there is a scripting error in my version that KA's patch fixed (god I wish I could use it on a mac!) with the radio, you shouldn't miss anything for not having it.

And if your really worried about missing something in the game go to Per's guide: http://user.tninet.se/~jyg699a/fallout2.html
 
Ok I will do that ! Many thanks for the answer, I am really into Fallout but bugs tend to put me off. If there is no impact from not giving the radio then i will follow your advice, great answer thanks!
P.S.: Is there any mean not to be robbed by the f*** brats? What about giving my *precious* items to Sulik?
 
NPC's don't get robbed in the Den so giving items to Sulik will save you the pain of trying to get them back.
 
And by "gnap" Per means you should post in the modding forum when playing with anything but the official patches installed.
 
It's what I did, thanks a lot for this *simple and clean* solution! And as in the new post I wrote, I even had to kill him twice... I don't know if it's because I tampered with the killap NPC appearance files or if it's just a bug. I would like back the normal appearance but I can't load my savegames anymore (all details in the post http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=35863)
Anyway many thanks for your help guys!
