Quite an oddball radio.  No information about it on the web, except that PS Casual is a cologne and perfume brand.  The radio is probably part of a promotional package like, "Spend $100 or more on our fine fragrance selections and receive this radio cassette player as a free gift."

 

Sound quality:  The whole low end of the sound spectrum is cut off, but it doesn't crackle or rattle.  Good for listening over the din of road traffic.

Convenience:  Compact size makes it fit easily into messenger bags. The use of three "D" sized batteries as the power source gives it exceptional marathon play.

Ease of use:  Good selectivity in tuning, not drifting out of tune.  Just set it and forget it.

Flaw:  Slide volume control needs occasional shots with electrical contact cleaner, not very well sealed against dust.

 

Over all:  Great to have for talk shows and news broadcast, not so for music.
