Panasonic RF-B55
 
Hello all,

I found a thread here comparing this radio with the Sangean 606 (I
think?), saying that it was a rebadge. Can anyone tell me anything
about the quality? I am perceiving that the 606 is well-regarded but
does this hold for the RF-B55?

Note that I am by no means an expert or particularly demanding - just
interested to know as I have access to one.

Cheers,
cam

the DX-399 is nice but the PL-200 is more fun and probably a lot
cheaper for you since I read the B55 is way overpriced.

the 55 is also made in taiwan where the 606 is now made in china

cheap B55 which is why i asked about it...

the 55 is also made in taiwan where the 606 is now made in china
