I like to listen to my current clock radio when I get

I hit the sleep timer button and turn lights off an

Does anyone make a good SW radio that has a sleep timer
in it but also has say a infrared remote control as
well so I can change "freqs" while in bed?
AOR-7030

It also has a timer. As the manual says, it makes an expensive clock
radio.

Note that the AR7030 has two IR sensors on it. To operate mine
outdoors, I had to put electrical tape over the one on the back. I
discovered this problem in the field when the radio controls would not
react properly.

IR sensors have trouble with the Sun (and fluorescents).

though,I have two tv sets and one 22 inch computer monitor looking at
me.

You lie. You have stated here before that you needed to change the
RayOVac batteries in your WebTV wireless keyboard.

My wireless webtv keyboard and my wireless webtv hand held remote
control both run on batteries.The IR thingy is for recording movies to a
VCR recorder via webtv.I use a seperate tv set for watching old,old
movies on tv.Action in the North Atlantic movie is on the TCM channel
right now.
