Great Radio to take on a walk
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Especially at this time of year its great to take a walk among the autumn leaves and catch up on the news with my favorite FM station. The station stays locked in place and the sound is crisp and clear. A perfect companion for quiet exercise.

Poor battery life

(This is compared to an old discontinued Sony that required a battery change every few MONTHS). Otherwise radio works well.
