The Panasonic RF-562D portable shortwave radio is a great throwback to a classic radio build. It does very well on all the bands, and is worth the money for what you get.

Features I like about this radio:
The classic look is great.
The carrying case is included and really brings home that nostalgic look.
Reception on all of the bands is very good.
Speaker audio is fantastic for voice such as talk radio, sports, shortwave listening and classic radio shows.
Runs on D cells which is good for many days.
Long antenna whip.
Easy to use.

Features that could be added or improved on:
Price, it might be a little high for what it is, but there are not many radios out there in this catagory.
Dial light.
At least mono playback for both ears when using headphones.
Tuning knob could be slightly smoother.
The use of metal would have been a home run on this radio.

Overall, if your looking for that nostalgic look, conversation piece, and a radio that can perform then this is for you. If you want an up to date portable analog shortwave radio and don't care about having the classic look, then check out the Tecsun 9700DX for the same price.
