Title: A big disappointment
Product review: I already have a radio but I bought this for two purposes (1) to pick up my NPR station clearly. For some reason, it comes in perfectly on my car radio, but poorly on my hi-fi and on my regular radios it is competely swamped by a nearby country station. I figured this radio would be able to separate the stations. (2) to discover new stations on shortwave.It failed to do either, despite much experimentation with the antenna and external antenna. The FM NPR station is completely swamped by the country music station - feeble, considering I can hear it perfectly in my car in my garage, and this radio is on the 3rd floor of a house sitting high on a hill. As for the shortwave, I only picked up a couple of stations. Other annoyance: cannot listen to the stations as you tune it, as you would be able to with analog tuning. On a huge band like SW, this is very frustrating. I expected more considering these reviews and the price.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
