Review on Black Portable Pocket AM FM Radio Receiver with Earphone, Rechargeable Battery for Walk/Jogging/Gym/Camping by Trevor Bannister

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great except for one problem.

I almost returned this unit due to very poor reception. He only caught two stations; one religious and one national (and both were static). Remembering that the instructions said the headphone cable served as the antenna, I substituted another inexpensive headphone. The radio then received numerous clear-sounding radio stations. I tried another pair of cheap headphones and they worked fine too. The included headphones sounded okay when used with some of my tablets and laptops. For some reason they don't work very well as an antenna so be prepared to substitute another pair of headphones or earphones for use with this radio. Aside from that initial hiccup, I was very happy with this radio and it served its purpose well, adding music to my walks around the neighborhood.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Will not fit all
