At night in a tent? In that case if you want to spend a little more
money,I suggest a Sony 7600GR Radio and a very good waterproof cover to
keep it dry.

The performance of the SW100 and 7600GR are pretty much the same,
except that the SW100 is much smaller and has a squeakier speaker. The
SW100 os basically a miniaturised 7600. But on headphones they sound
the same (both extremely good). A ngelcted point of these radios is
that they not only have a phone socket, they have a line out socket,
and can deliver superb audio quality of FM to both earphones and an
external hifi.
