The SRF-59 is a superb high performance radio for it's price - there
is a specific ULTRALIGHT group that specialises in these little
radio's. Astonishing results on MW DX. My pick of the litter for these
little radio's though is the Eton E100.

Eduardo – have you ever seen a Sony FM/AM Walkman model SRF-59?

This little Sony can be bought for less that $15, has super
performance in both AM and FM modes, has excellent audio and
sensitivity and works for days on a single AA battery. And, if you
loose it or it gets stolen you’re out nothing. *You just buy another
one

Now, that’s cool.

Now tell me again about how neat "HD" radio is?
