With a radio in this price range, having digital readout might be
something of a disadvantage due to noise.

Well, the tuning is analog -- it's just a digital display that takes
the place of a normal dial and pointer.
Do these digital frequency displays really add any more noise? They're
not really a vital part of the whole tuning system, I don't think (in
other words, you could cut out the LCD and the tuner would still work
properly).
