5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good radio, April 20, 2004

I've had my radio for about three years now and it's a pretty good value. The radio is quite light and is easy to carry while exercising. It comes with a belt clip or a special cord which allows you to hang the radio from your neck. Radio reception is pretty good on both AM and FM. Battery life is pretty good.
The included earphones are adequate, but you may find them to be a little uncomfortable for long periods of time as they are not "sculpted" to the shape of the ear. I personally use my own.
Overall, due to its light weight and good radio reception, this radio is highly recommended if you like to listen to the radio while exercising.

I had a terrible experience with this radio--the reception was so bad nothing came in on FM. The FM antenna is built into the headphone wires so you have to play with the position of the wires. Not worth it even if they gave it to me! I returned it to the store within hours.

I just received my little radio yesterday and was very happy! It is small enough to wear during my workouts at the gym and the sound is pretty good. It has a neck strap which is convenient. The prices on some other portable audio is outrageous. This is a great deal for 8 dollars. I'll probably get them in other colors as well!
