Do not buy if AM reception is required

AM reception is poor. As someone else pointed out, even the strongest AM station sounds like it's in some other distant state. I bought this radio for AM and FM. Only FM works well. I assume there is no AM antenna and the FM antenna serves both bands. If you need both bands, don't buy this radio.

Pros
  • Shortwave radios
Cons
  • Nothing

Classic direct radio. Easy to use.

Love the classic look, easy to read digital display that lets you dial in the exact station instead of guessing with a traditional analogue display. The antenna is long, but I didn't have to extend it all the way to get clear audio. For example, when I can use batteries outdoors, but am mainly powered by an outlet in my garage. Great product for the price.

Good basic radio for short wave radios

Bought this radio for use in the event of a power outage as it runs on D type batteries. Too many USB devices are already disconnecting from my laptop and PC. The sound quality is average and you have to be careful when turning the tuning knob. It's old-fashioned, so sometimes you can get better reception on some stations by touching or rotating the antenna. Note that the dial has "second" next to "hour" for minutes. The image on the box is the same sequential Type-O.

Cons
  • Requires outlet
