JRF, RHF is on the money recommending Sangean's ATS-909 and Grundig 800.
Haven't heard the 800, but do know from hands on that that the 909(Realistic
398) has a killer dx-quality f.m. section! And the RDS display is a nice
adendum. Grundig's Yacht Boy 400 P.E., available from Ratio Shaq, has an f.m.
section similar in performance to Sangean's 909! 73s from KDVS country in Sac
Valley (U.C. Davis' KDVS is also 90.3 Mhz & musically eclectic)!

Hey, you're near me! I'm in Rio Linda. I've had problems recieving KDVS
on an ordinary home stereo when I lived in downtown Sacramento.
Apparently their signal is only meant to cover Davis. KDVS and KUSF are
both training stations for students in the communications and broadcast
journalism programs of their respective universities. Sacramento State
has a student station called The Apex (last time I checked) but
apparently it just covers the campus-must be a Part 15 operation.
