📻 Sony SRF-M37V FM/AM/Weather/TV Radio Walkman: 25 Memory Presets (Discontinued) Review

Why radio? Constantly listening to MP3s of my legends from the 60s, 70s, 80s (the clock stops here) became dangerous as these gems became cornflakes (due to an overdose). It was scary. I also felt like it made me isolated, locked in my own world, I'll hear what I want, when I want. So I went back to the radio. I'm back with the outside world with this $20 gadget. I use for running, treadmill, stepper, in the office. The radio tape recorder is solidly made, it looks solid, clean, unobtrusive…

I would like to say that I am not a music lover. just your average listener. I bought this unit for use at work when I'm at the docks. I mainly use it to listen to news and NPR. That works great. Reception is very good, not great on AM and FM. TV reception is poor in my area, maybe it could be better if you were closer to the station. The supplied headphones are quite large, but sound good.

I always drop these little devices when I…

This is by far the best pocket radio I have ever owned. I have never abused the radio like this and it worked without any problems. I recently tore down a huge wing of the church for a remodel that I volunteered to help with. I managed to dump 5 tons of building material and take it to landfill without damaging it. This included the tiles on the bathroom wall falling on me and the radio between me and the wall. I had no problems, a few scratches were the worst that happened. Before that I…

I read the reviews before I bought this unit. At the time there were two main complaints. These were station jamming and hitting the power button while in storage, draining the battery until next use. I bought this device despite these complaints. I was expecting some interference issues given the performance of the device and figured I could fix the accidentally pressing the power button. However, both issues have been addressed in the user manual. The block has a blocking switch. I believe…
