- Does it need batteries to work?
- No. It runs on batteries or from a wall outlet, so you can use it either way.
- Does it have a digital display or presets?
- No. Tuning is analog with a printed dial, and there are no station presets, clock or alarm.
- Can it play in stereo through headphones?
- The built-in speaker is mono. A headphone jack gives private listening but not stereo separation.
- How well does it pick up AM stations?
- FM is the stronger band. AM works but is weak indoors, so try it near a window before relying on it.
- Is it good for emergencies?
- Yes for basic use. It runs on standard batteries and has a simple dial, but it has no flashlight or hand crank.
- Where is the Panasonic Portable AM FM Radio Silver RF-2400 cheapest?
- At Walmart, for $34.99, as of our latest check.
