RadioShack Portable Digital Tuning AM/FM/Weather Band Table Radio
30 April 2019
Horrible AM audio like most sets designed after 2002
Any reviewer who says this radio has good sound was probably born after 1990 and has never heard a radio manufactured before 2002, particularly on the AM band. It was at that time that the pathetic, knee-jerk consumer electronics industry adopted a template for AM radio circuitry that became the standard because it was "compatible" with AM HD radio. It was an underhanded trick by the corporate "inventors" of HD. By making the traditional analog audio of an AM station absolutely horrible, it would force broadcasters to buy their inferior, overpriced system or face even greater declines in listenership. As it turned out, just a tiny fraction of the receivers they made were even capable of receiving these third rate, low bit stream AM HD signals. AM HD has been soundly rejected by rank-and-file AM broadcasters and the public. Nevertheless, the lazy, do-nothing consumer electronics industry is still on auto-pilot after 17 years. It has done nothing to open up the I.F. bandwidth in the AM circuitry of their sets and restore the fidelity AM radios had in the 1980's and 1990's when analog AM stereo was the design template. And thanks to their laziness, we now have low power "translators," obliterating the entire FM band, that rebroadcast AM stations because no one can stand to listen to AM audio anymore. The FCC had to do something or be faced with even large, urban AM stations going bankrupt or silent. But such a survival concession should have been largely unnecessary. If Millennials and Gen-Zers want to hear what AM radio REALLY sounds like, get your hands on an RCA or GE SuperRadio (which was designed during the AM stereo era of the 20th Century). Tune to a local AM station with a good audio chain, then set the bandwidth to "wide" and crank it up. You will have a hard time deciding what sounds better: a 128k stream into a 100 watt stereo system or the SuperRadio. That's more than I can say for this post-Radio Shack piece of junk which costs around the same amount of money! Although the sensitivity of this set may be quite acceptable when you induce an external antenna near the internal AM loopstick, reception on all three bands with the internal antennas is less than adequate. So, Radio Shack engineers (in-house or contracted) also need to work on better sensitivity with the internal antennas. They also could have easily added external antenna jacks for AM and FM/weather. The only good thing I can say about this radio is that the digital tuning and memory system is quite simple, intuitive, dependable, and totally adequate for most listeners. And I like the size, design, and portability. But what good is all that with audio that sounds like mud and sensitivity that's pedestrian at best? Shame on you, Radio Shack engineers! Stop sleep walking and design something that brings the thrills you use to bring.

Generally okay but needs better quality control
One of the ear pieces came apart after the first use. I was able to use a strong plastics glue that worked but should not have been necessary. Okay sound. I generally do not like ear buds but they are being forced upon us by the phone industry.
