Take me out to the ball game... If you can't get there, a radio is the next best thing. Even if you made it to the stadium, the radio provides commentary that you wouldn't ordinarily hear.

    Best AM/FM Pocket Radio at this price!

    "This is a fine pocket radio! You won't find a better one in this price range. It is not a stereo receiver; if you want to use stereo earplugs, buy a 3.5 mm. mono/stereo adapter plug for 99 cents and you will hear in both ears. If you are a discriminating audiophile who can hear 20 to 20,000 Hz, look elsewhere...." Read Full Review »

    Great for outside use

    "This is a good, small radio. I purchased it with the hopes of picking up talk radio in my office, but the poor reception combined with the fact that the tuning dial is so small that the slightest bump of the tuning knob isn't accurate enough to tune in AM. It's great for AM/FM outdoors, and not bad for FM indoors...." Read Full Review »

    "This is a fine portable radio for the beach for travel or to take in a ball game on the porch. The main problem I have with it is this: Since I listen to the radio in bed with ear buds, volume is critical. The on/volume is the same dial and when I turn it on, there is no volume; as I inch the dial …"  Read Full Review »
