This is probably not the newgroup I need to be on, but perhaps someone could
point me to one better suited for my question.

I want to buy a portable AM radio that will receive a distant station that
is close (in frequency) to a nearby station. The radio in my car does this
just fine, but not any of the portable radios I've tried. I. The guy at
Radio Shack told me I needed a radio with a digital tuner, so I bought one.
Didn't work so I took it back. The display was digital; I don't know if
anything else was. I had similar results at Circuit City and Best Buy. The
clerks at these places appear to be clueless.

Appreciate any help.
