RJ,

Portable AM/FM Pocket Radio Needs a Better Speaker
-think- Portable {Self-Powered} Stereo Speakers

No Problem -simply- Use the Radio's built-in Earphone Jack
with a Pair of Self-Powered Stereo Speakers. Any Audio
Impedance mismatch can be compensated by the Radio's
Volume Control and the Speaker's Amplifier.

Take a look at these Mini Portable Travel Stereo Speakers
for PC etc. - http://cgi.ebay.com/_W0QQitemZ310033398774
* They use an 1/8" Stereo Plug for the Input
[ Your Pocket Radio's Earphone Jack. ]
* They can use 4 "AAA" Batteries for self-power.
* Mini = 7.75"W x 2.75"H x 1.25"D

Sony SRS-T33 Compact Portable Speakers

Uses 4 "AA" Batteries

hope this helps ~ RHF
