Panasonic RF-3500 E-9K

A new arrival, a Panasonic RF-3500 E-9K.





One of the few low-end models of consumer radios by major manufacturers that still come with a shortwave band.

Quick review:

Appearance good.

Construction solid, good plastic, nice nobs and controls.

Nice scale, or tuning dial, in English and apparently in Russian using Latin letters.

Reception on FM is very good, on shortwave however couldn't get anything while trying under less than favorable conditions for shortwave reception - during daytime from a concrete apartment block, using just the collapsible antenna. MW and LW are depopulated here in Russia so no use even trying.
