    Great reception both am and fm, great price. If it's as durable as my previous sony radio, I'll have it for about 10 years. Thanks.

    I got this radio for my mother. Since we had the hurricane we needed a way to communicate and know what was going on. This radio has a great pocket size. It has great reception and it sounds clear. It has an antenna too. It just uses a 2 AA batteries which are easy to find anywhere. If you are making a relief backpack this is an item to add on it.

    It has good reception and sound quality for such a small device. Nothing fancy; however practical for anyone facing a natural disaster

    not for pocket use

    good sound and reception, but is NOT for use in a pocket because the dial controls will change the station and volume as the unit is placed in or taken out of the pocket. los, the ear buds plug is on the side, so it interferes with being placed in a pocket. if used stationary, on a table, it's fine.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Needed a small portable am/fm radio that runs on batteries - not as easy to find as you would hope. Radio worked good, however the tuning of stations is hard and very touchy to get accurate. Takes some playing around to get the station you want to come in clear. Once found it works as expected.
