Portable Radio Small, AM/FM/SW Battery Radio, Pocket Radio Battery Operated with Excellent Reception and Headphone Jack, Mini Simple Radio for Outdoor, Indoor & Emergencies

Good reception. Nice and clear. I am addicted to Classic Fm so am looking forward to many happy hours listening. Definitely value for money.

Good value for money. I fitted the little radio with 2 x Energizer AA 2000mAH (2AH, which I recommend) to check operational life. With the speaker volume set half way, it finally stopped working after 62 HOURS continuous use. The tuning dial is rather coarse but once tuned it does not 'drift'. The tuning knob is reasonably smooth so not too fiddly. Reciever sensitvity is acceptable. The little speaker is sufficient for personal use and maybe a few people to listen to sports or background music outdoors in quiet areas. To expect hifi audio is unrealistic. However, audio is acceptable with headphones. There is a little red 'on' LED on the front panel, which at least confirms the batteries are okay. Just wish I could find a small travel case for it....

Great

At just under ten pounds it’s not surprising this isn’t the last word in portable radios, but it certainly gets the job done. It was quite nostalgic rotating the tuning wheel, although the travel isn’t great so trying to get those stations close to each other was a bit tricky. The good news is both the tuning and volume wheels are sturdy and don’t wobble like some. The speaker is pretty tinny as you might expect , again it’s pretty good for the price though and didn’t distort at moderate volumes. You get Sw,AM and FM bands, and a headphone out. It’s portable , pretty plasticky, but for the money it’s good value. It’s not that durable , the battery spring popped out when I removed the batteries , but it was easy enough to put back in. If you need a cheap radio , this is worth a look.

I always used to have a little radio on when I was younger, so really wanted to go back to those times and use something that isn't advanced like modern technology. This is perfect to operate in small places or use the old style corded ear buds to listen too. I have used this at hom when in the kitchen or doing cleaning around the house as I move room to room. I found it's perfect for our little caravan and picks up signal quite well considering. It's not going to pick up a huge array of stations due to it's size and capabilities. The sound as I mentioned I good for small spaces and clear. It's to the quality that a transistor radio will reach. It takes just one AA battery that seems to last forever and just very easy to use. You don't need electricity to run this thing and not invading your private life like so many of what is modern technology does.
