Why Dream -when- You Can Catch A Vision {Picture :-} !
.
The presently in 'pre-production' Tecsun S-2000 Radio which
looks a lot like a Mini-Grundig Satellit 800 Radio may be
your replacement Dream Radio for the Panasonic RF2200 Radio

For One and All,
.
If you can find and take a look at the Tecsun Radio Club
Roomhttp://www.tecsun.com.cn/radioclub/images/Pic00029.jpg
(R&D) you will see many old and new Radios there including
the Panasonic RF-2200 Radio.
.
IMHO - The Tecsun BCL-2000 was a step in the right direction
and the Redsun RP2100 is another step along that path . . .
The new Redsun RP3000/RP3100 may be the next step ? ? ?
.
FWIW - Radio-Electronics manufacturing has changed greatly
in the 30 Years from 1977 to 2007 and a 'close-copy' of the
outward appearance and styling may be 'Doable" by the insides
will be cost effective and very different.

- I am using my BCL3000 with a PK AM loop antenna for AM DX.
- The results are good, but I would like to try something better.
