This review is from: Panasonic RFB11 Compact Shortwave Radio (Electronics)

Of all the analog multi band radios out there , this is the best buy . I have compared this to the Sony SW11 and the Sangean Sg 622 which are its equivalents . There is no comparison as far as tuner selectivity goes , especially on SW . The Sangean sounds very good but this radio has an edge . It has FM stereo , a telescoping antenna and a tone switch . In performance tests it clearly was better that the Sony and the Sangean . I have even found this radio to perform better than the Grundig g2000a , the yb 300pe and the Sony SW35 and 40 as far as tuner sensativity and overall performance are concerned ( and these are digital radios!!!) . If you can find it , buy it! You will be surprised and pleased.
