Portable AM/FM radio recommendations?

Post by bort »

When I travel, I usually find it interesting once I've arrived to listen to local radio stations, more than to listen to my iPod (as I do when I'm on the plane).

I'm hoping to find an inexpensive portable AM/FM radio that:
-- costs around $20,
-- has a digital tuner,
-- is pocket-sized, but not an armband model.

I found this, but wonder if anyone else out there has another suggestion:

(Also, I don't really want an iPod radio attachment. Thought about it though.)

Any thoughts? Thanks! :tuba:

Hi Jon -- I just got mine yesterday, and I think it's great. Just what I wanted.

Bummer though that the TV band is only going to work for another month or so. Oh well, that's not what I bought it for anyway. :tuba:
