Review: Reliable Old-School Radio – Still Going Strong After Years - I bought the Panasonic RF-2400 and it's proven to be one of the most dependable analog portables out there. The sound is surprisingly good for its size—clear AM/FM reception with a decent speaker that fills a small room without distortion at moderate volumes. The tuning dial is smooth and precise, and the analog pointer makes it easy to find stations quickly, even in fringe areas. It runs great on either AC power (cord is long enough to reach outlets comfortably) or batteries—I've used D-cells during outages, and it sips power so a fresh set lasts weeks of casual listening. No digital nonsense, no apps to update, just plug in or pop in batteries and it works every time. The build feels solid: sturdy plastic, good antenna (telescopic FM works well, and the built-in AM ferrite rod pulls in distant stations better than expected). It's not flashy—simple silver design, basic controls—but that's part of the appeal. No Bluetooth or extras to fail; it's pure radio. Reception in my area (suburban SoCal) has been excellent on both bands. For the price, it's unbeatable value if you want something simple, reliable, and long-lasting. This thing will probably outlive most modern gadgets. Highly recommend as a go-to emergency or everyday radio. 5 stars.
Review: So very easy to use - This radio is the best ever. A perfect size and so easy to hear. Not full of all the modern things that can drive you crazy, but simple with dials you can easily control. On-Off-Sound- and station are easily at your command. And it picks up a lot more stations than my small pocket size radio

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Radio reception is inconsistent and affected by several factors.**
A: Compared to FM, AM radio tends to cover a much larger area. The time of day also plays affects reception. Generally, reception will be better after sunset, when it is not unusual to hear AM stations from hundreds of miles away.

**Q: Reception of local stations is intermittent and sound is inferior, with a lot of static and tinny sound quality.**
A: FM stations offer better sound quality, but FM stations' range is much smaller compared to AM stations. Moving the radio to a different position will often improve the reception. In some rural areas there. May be no FM stations.

**Q: Sound quality not good -- there is a lot of background static.**
A: It’s very important to note that many electronic devices in your home can emit electronic interference that makes listening to distant / weaker stations more difficult. Do not place your radio next to other electronic devices.
