I've always had this feeling.
 

The Superradio III is a pile. Touchy to tune, drifty, hardly will stay
on any station but the mile-wide ones at the low end of the AM dial.
But it certainly is sensitive and good-sounding when tuned spot-on to a
decent station.. Cabinet quality s pretty bad, tuning mechanism is
sloppy and stretchy. This is all reflected in its price, $40 new is the
low end. CCRadio is ery good. I have owned one since around 1999.
Everything the SR III ain't. They did a lot of things right, most
appreciated by me is the slewing buttns which jump in 10khz steps, not
9, as many others did back then. Makes it very easy to scan the AM band
in the dark or without using the tuning knob. Also, tuning by the knob
is in 1khz resolution, which is just fine for AM broadcasts, off-tuning
for tone quality or adjacent-channel avoidance. Sensitivity is at least
good. Only real complaint is that the case is a bit awkward-shaped, but
if you aren't going to walk around with it in your hand all the time, it
isn't a big deal. I am not at all disappointed I bought it. It gets used
primarily daytime for around 3 hrs/day and mostly sets atop our fridge
where I can rotate it for the various stations we listen to regularly
during that time. It has a pleasant tone for voice and FM music is very
decent, too, eerily room-filling without needing to be loud.
