Bottom line: A neat little pocket-portable AM-FM-SW "bang-about"
radio that won't hurt much should it fall in the water when boating,
become lost, or stolen from the car / office. Digital display makes
it easier to tune than the also popular Coby slide-rule radios in this
price range (15-25 dollars).


Agree.. have picked up 12.095 ( BBC from Ascension) walking around in NYC
streets; but does overload.
It's very good on batteries, so I use it as an FM source put through Computer
speakers.

Nice for tooling around on a Bike; if your out in the clear, you can pick up
stronger stations.
if you crash & it flies apart; you're just out ten bucks !

will try an external antenna later on whilst on Bike.
