(OT) What's a DECENT fm (clock?) radio?

Ones I've bought at costco -- when a cab drives
by the house, you hear him transmitting on
his radio.
And LOUSY sensitivity!
(Where do they make these things, in China?)
I look in Amazon for table-top radios, and
not one gets consistently decent reviews.
And apparently all of them are slapped together
with ZERO effort at defect-free construction.
So, you guys have any suggestions?
Thanks!

PS: In an earlier life, back in the 50's and 60's,
I was K5TEQ. Built (of course) DX-40, and even
that HUGE heathkit ham receiver. Later got an
NCX-something SSB transceiver (could NCX
have been the name? -- it was SO long ago.)
But tired of the ham stuff -- the only thing people
wanted to talk about was their equipment!

Get an internet clock radio like the Sangean RCR-8WF or Aluratek AIRMM01F.
You do have internet, right?
