I have one, its ok, you can add some
wire to the antenna for better shortwave
reception...

I'vr own one for over a year. It works good on local AM/FM stations
and also on the masjor SW Broadcasters with very little drifting. When
outside I use one of yhose rollup antennas with an alligator clip to
attach it to the radio . With the rollup antenna, I keep the antenna
down except for about 1/2 inch to clip to as there is no swivel.
Battery lifes is excellent and only replaced the 2 AA's three times
since owning it. The tuning knob is "stiff" but thats better then free
spinning on a small radio.
