Editorial Review
Now you can travel anywhere and hear what's happening at home! World radio picks up local stations when you're on vacation or picks up foreign stations when you're at home. Great for storm and weather warnings too.How exciting! Powerful 9-band world receiver gives you information from around the world whenever you want it. Knowledge from the entire firmament, the cradle of humanity, can be yours! Receiver amazingly pulls in international views from all over the globe, while the AM/FM radio function gives you the local perspectives. Never wonder what the rest of the world is thinking; just tune in and hear for yourself. Make your own judgments on any political affairs, hear about what is affecting family and friends in other areas of the world, and check out the weather before you travel anywhere. Fits easily into luggage so you can be instantly aware of the goings-on at home. News from around the neighborhood and around Mother Earth. Unit has a telescopic antenna, wrist strap, band selector, battery slot, AM and FM indicator, power jack, earphone jack, power switch and volume control.

Fair starter radio

2008-01-03
I have bought several of these little radios over the years. The first one I bought, put batteries in, and turned on received Radio China, Radio Netherlands, and several other stations. I have taken them on trips and given away some to interested persons. It does ok for an inexpensive radio. AM and FM reception is good, I have not heard the TV band yet though.

This doesn't qualify as a radio

This thing does not qualify as a radio in any regard. Well .. OK, it kinda looks like one, but a the photo will work just as well as the actual item. If you're looking for your first SW radio, spend a few extra bucks and get something else. The cheapest radio you can find on Amazon from Kaito (ie the WRX911)or Eton (ie The Mini) will outperform this thing by a mile.
My recommendations for a budget SW radio .. the Kaito KA1101 or KA1102 .. both excellent performers.

It's okay...

PROS- Does a lot of bands SW,MW(AM),FM w/TV band
CONS- The reception is awful. I can barely pull in any SW stations, and if I can it's hard to hear and I have to move the radio in the perfect place. FM and AM reception is fair to average. I noticed the tuning of FM is way off from where it says, for example I pick up 104.7 on what looks like 101.5 on the radio.

In conclusion, it does a lot of bands but it's reception is awful and it's hard to tune.
