I had two major problems with this device and had to return it:
1. Volume level far too low, even when set to max (perhaps due to AVLS?).
2. Radio untuneable. There are 2 buttons for digital tuning - up and down - which when pressed make a loud irritating continuous beeping and mute the radio. You have to release these buttons to hear what you've tuned to - which of course is usually nothing as you can't hear the radio while tuning. There's no problem if you already know the exact frequency you want. If you don't, tuning is very tedious. The beep cannot be muted or turned down. There is no autoscan or autotune.
By Panasonic standards I regard this as unacceptable and would be very sceptical about buying another Panasonic product.
