SONY ICF-19 FM Radio FM Radio  (Black)

The Sony ICF-19 is unusual in a few ways. The most exciting aspect is how great its reception is for this price range…among the very best I have seen in an inexpensive paperback book-sized portable.listening at low levels will dramatically extend battery life and conversely, listening loudly will dramatically reduce it. Another interesting observation is that the BATT light actually gives a fair warning of when the batteries are getting weak.\nOn the negative side is its AM sound which is a bit less crisp than many such radios, although many people will find its sound just fine, and it sounds quite nice on FM. Overall a great value in a work horse radio.\n\nRecommended!
