I like the retro 1960's style. It arrived today and I put some D-Cells in it. Moments later, I heard all the news from the San Francisco radio station (about 90 miles away) with perfect clarity. Radio is in many ways an anachronism. If your favorite AM station is on the X-Band (1620-1700kHz), you may not need this setting. If your radio is like mine, the upper part of its scale is 1660kHz, which I'm fine with as Bear is the only X-band station I enjoy listening to. As a lifelong radio amateur I can tell you that its FM reception is above average for a cheap radio. Before I bought it, I read a comment from someone who said its AM reception was on par with an AM tube radio. This is accurate and means its AM sensitivity is better than most cheap wearables. After sunset I could listen to KNX (about 300 miles away) without interference from a powerful sports station on 1090kHz, 20kHz (two channels) on the dial. By the way, it's not a transistor radio in the sense that transistor radios existed in the 1960's (remember when a small radio had a designation like "six transistors?"), but that's fine. It looks damn cool, and the sound quality is way better than a small 1960's transistor radio.
