Summary: 2 Stars
. . . it would have been a 5 star review. The radio itself is really good, and the reception that I got on all bands was excellent.
I bought this to use at work to replace my battery-eating Sony SRF-M37V, and I must use headphones there, so unfortunately the mono headphone output was a deal breaker for me.
If you don't plan on using headphones with it, I think it is a wonderful radio. If you plan on using headphones, look elsewhere.
Digital camera Review: If reception is important, this radio is a great deal
Summary: 5 Stars
So many small, inexpensive radios are just junk. We have a local FM station whose signal is so weak that most radios won't pick it up. When I needed a new radio, I went around to local shops trying several on that station. This is the only one I found that brought in a strong signal. It has good tone quality as well. The weather broadcast is fair but the TV stations come in strong.Digital camera Review: JUNK

How anyone can rate this as a good radio is beyond me! There is no channel that this can receive! Tuner is well below sub-par! If you can actually get a channel in tune it will not be for long! How a simple variable capacitor tuner could be so bad is remarkable! They've been producing this type of tuner for nearly 100 years now; leave it to SONY to screw it up. I've disliked SONY for some time and was reluctant to get this but it was cheap. BUT NOW... I'll NEVER buy ANYTHING SONY again regardless of the cost! Put your money in something else. A tuning fork would get better reception than this!
