Dang, that was a good radio...the SW was strong, and every nught,
before turning in, I'd flip it on, scroll through the SW1 band,
listening to a few dozen station for about 15 minutes....but sadly she
died on me, and I threw it away...
I bught a Grundig Yachtboy......what a pieve of crap....I'm lucky to
receive 2 - 3 stations, usually jesus stations...nowhere near the
reception power of the 30 year old Panasonic....
Maybe i can snag one off of ebay...


Yup, that's a nice looking radio - came close to buying one a couple of
times. Reminds me vaguely of the Sony ICF5900, which was a fun radio
to use.
