It's an AM-FM pocket radio,
sells at the SONY site for about $13.
When I bought it, shipping was free.

It must be a "next generation" radio.
Tuning, sensitivity, selectivity are excellent.
I live in southern Arizona, and on any given night,
I listen to San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Oklahoma City, etc.

I'm about to get an SRF-59. BCB DXers are using them and raving about them,
calling it "ultralight DXing." The SRF-59 does tune all the way to 1700
kHz.
