I have lots of radios, but for AM/FM clock radios I really like these
two. Very good sound for the price.

C Crane SW (same as Redsun RP2100 and Kaito KA-2100)
C Crane 2E

The SW costs around $139. It runs off of AC, or 4 AA, or 4 D (yes it can
hold 8 batteries). And it will recharge rechargeable batteries. As a
local distance switch (AM) and a RF Gain control too. It also has SW

The 2E costs around $159. Runs on AC or 4D. It also has weather and 2
meter band.


Who puts rechargeable batteries in their alarm clock?
