Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy your favorite radio and TV programs while away from home with the Sony FDL-220R Watchman TV. The device broadcasts all VHF and UHF stations on its 2.2-inch color LCD screen, and also carries an AM/FM tuner for listening to news, music, or sporting events. Reception is ensured by the innovative neck strap antenna, or, as Sony calls it, the Straptenna. To improve spotty TV or radio reception, merely move the unit and antenna strap until a good broadcast signal comes through. In addition to storing around the user's neck, the Watchman is also designed to sit or stand on a desk, bookshelf, or table for convenient viewing.

The FDL-220R includes a rocker switch on the right side of the unit for changing channels, and on/off, volume, and brightness controls on the left side. The device also offers a mini headphone jack for people who want to listen privately. With dimensions of 3.25 x 6 x 2 inches (W x H x D) and a weight of 9.9 ounces, the FDL-220R is comfortable around the neck or in the hand. The unit runs on four AA batteries--with an approximate runtime of three hours--or connects to a separately sold AC adapter.

This is an awesome TV with really great picture quality. I have never seen this kind of reception on a portbale TV. With its portability and great picture reception it makes an excellent gift for a child or for yourself. I take this TV wherever I go and I think you should do the same. Some Advice: Buy rechargeable batteries. It will save you a lot of money.
