Panasonic DR29

I'v purchased some old radios which date back to 70s in the last several months. In those days, some radio manufacturing companies produced a series of radios for shortwave listening. Sony, Panasonic Toshiba are among them. Most of them were Japan's companies because young Japanese generation of those years were keen to listen to radios as a hobby.
Panasonic made a couple series of portable radios such as Cougar and Proceed. I got one of them. It's DR29. This model is similar to RF-2800 for Japanese market but slightly different in some features. DR29 was produced for Europe and equipped with some functions which were omitted in the Japanese model.
