Hi there, a quick comparison of these two fine portable radios using the low power TX from St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada. The Sony is probably the benchmark against which all other portables are measured, although with filtering options and SYNC, it might be farer to compare the Panasonic against one of it's more contemporary rivals such as the Sony ICF-7600G for example. However, despite said options, there's really not very much difference in the reception of this signal, which says a lot about the Panasonic with it's smaller form-factor and less advanced reception mode options. I am beginning to understand why this radio has almost a cult following - and the price I paid for it reinforces this view! Signal recorded in Oxford UK on 26/06/16 at 11: 32 hrs UTC using a non-resonant longwire antenna. Thanks for watching.
