Great article. I’ve had one since 1981, ordered new from Japan. Once my daughter found it played loud in the kitchen, I never got it back in my shack. Then she went to college, and my wife adopted it. They like the analog controls, I think, and its digital display. And it plays loud for them. Just found a 4800 at the thrift store. Seems to work ok, couple of screws and handles missing. It’s the European version with long wave. Seems to work, just needs a working digital display. One extra, Panasonic did offer a matching speaker the same size and metal as the 4900. $25 plus s/h at the time. Wish I had ordered one too, I’ve never seen one since…
