Review: Useful and Good product - Good Quality
Review: Follow-Up/UpDate - 09-02-2022 Now, after 17 months of usage, I will 're-evaluate' this purchase. First off, this is not, NOT a marketed N. American product [check your "MW" listing for "AM", is your indicator]. AND should you need 'parts', you'll find yourself quickly being directed to Europe and/or the Middle East... I needed an antenna [knocked over and bent this one]; after doing so, I soon discovered this model of radio is not covered with PANASONIC N. America, and henceforth no parts... Since having it, the volume/0ff-on knob has began to fail... Now, it has little to no volume control at the lower end of the range and when 'turned-up', it soon grows annoying at the higher-output. This to me, is indicative of low /or poor quality materials used in the control [I'll use two of my radios, both portables, which are over 38+ yrs old and still function like the day purchased - One has a 'rotary-styled' potentiometer; the other a 'slide-style' AND I can still lower the volume to a whisper]. My other 'big' complaint, with this radio is the quality [or lack thereof], of a decent working receiver portion and its ability to 'tune-in' to a radio station... It is weak, as is the sound-tonal quality from its speaker! Normally, I am an AM listener AND this radio has a hard time gathering that particular signal and locking on it strongly. This radio does not have a worthwhile tuner, plain-n-simple. I am located in suburbia-Americana and my other portables receive AM signals wonderfully, and with little to no issue - Especially when it comes to 'signal-fade'. This radio fails in this area. I finally grew tired of this particular PANASONIC, recently purchased a PANASONIC RF2400D Am/FM and absolutely love it! Great reception and great tuner dial - AND great volume. Do yourself a favor - Pass on this one and think of the purchasing another model, especially if you want decent sounds and reception... It's your money. As for this one, it is going 'out' and it won't be missed. It's everything I expected of an AM [MW... now]/FM radio. It's has decent sound quality - Good volume - Great reception - Looks 'old school', and I am 'old school'. Bought this for a replacement, for a multi-band 35+ yr old portable radio, used out in my garage [tuner was getting weak and I was losing tuner capabilities and reception integrity]. Once unpacked and set up, I have no complaints regarding this radio. Batteries replaced after nearly a full-month of it being left on, nearly 10-12 hrs a day - Yes, I like listening to the radio, out in my garage. And if you don't want to run it on batteries, pick up a power-pack and run it that way [Panasonic will give you the 'battery-eliminator-power-pack' info by just checking their website or the 'owners manual' has that info. About my biggest and only real complaint, is there is no dial-illumination light/lamp, one can reference when 'dialing-in' your radio station, in low-light conditions...My old one had that luxury. Overall, it is a good radio and I'd buy another without hesitation.
