Similar but not the same. The quality of the Panasonic is great, the
Grundig(Chinese) is not.
What type of problem are you having with the radio on AM? Is the problem on
the AM broadcast band only or also on the shortwave bands? Most of the
problems with lack of reception on either or all AM reception, is with the
Band Switches. Using a good contact cleaner such as DeOxit will usually
cure the problem. I've heard of a lot of problems such as this with the
Panasonic radios of that era and some of their TV tuner contacts as well,
and above is the solution. "Apparently" they are made from a material that
is prone to oxidation.

Hi: I have this radio.

I bought it at a thift shop in Florida a few years ago.

The FM sounds great, nice big front knob, fantastic spread dial, but the
AM need repair.

Do you know where I could take it? And I notice that Grundig came out
with a radio with a simular face patern like this one.

73!
