This is what I have been talikng about all along - the CCradio, S350,
and SuperAdio all all over-hyped, over-priced, glorified AM/FM/SW
receivers ! I almost found out the hard way too - I bought an S350
only to find out that my $25 RS PLL radio picked up the same stations,
as my S350, and the same goes for my car radio ! I am sure that my now
returned S350 is still sitting on the shelves at RS ! I have a $25 RS
model 12-898 PLL radio, that is really well-made, and very
sensitive/selective, but it has been discontinued. Luckily, I have two
new-in-the-box, as backups. Amazon has a few AM/FM/TV/WX radios, with
some reviews; you could search on
"AM/FM PLL". I just wouldn't get a drifty analog radio...

There is no such thing as a real radio with a TV band selection.
