I'm having a hard time finding a decent fm radio.



Ones I've bought at costco -- when a cab drives

by the house, you hear him transmitting on

his radio.



And LOUSY sensitivity!



(Where do they make these things, in China?)



I look in Amazon for table-top radios, and

not one gets consistently decent reviews.



And apparently all of them are slapped together

with ZERO effort at defect-free construction.



So, you guys have any suggestions?





Thanks!

PS: In an earlier life, back in the 50's and 60's,

I was K5TEQ. Built (of course) DX-40, and even

that HUGE heathkit ham receiver. Later got an

NCX-something SSB transceiver (could NCX

have been the name? -- it was SO long ago.)



But tired of the ham stuff -- the only thing people

wanted to talk about was their equipment!

Get an internet clock radio like the Sangean RCR-8WF or Aluratek AIRMM01F.
You do have internet, right?
