Sony SRF-M37W Walkman

Out of all the pocket radios we've tested that do not have built-in speakers, the Sony SRF-M37W Walkman Radio has THE BEST AM radio reception. Customer recommendations brought this radio to our attention. Our tests confirmed that this compact, easy-to-use radio has great AM sensitivity. However, if you are close to an AM broadcast antenna you may notice some bleeding into other adjacent stations on the dial. FM reception is comparable to our other fine pocket radios. Features 20 station presets (5 Weather, 10 FM, 5 AM), direct weather band button, local/distant (DX) switch for improved reception, hold switch to prevent accidental station changes, battery indicator, and LCD Digital Display with clock. Stereo headphones and belt clip also included. Exceptional battery life of over 40 hours on just one "AAA" alkaline battery (not included). Dimensions: 3.375" W x 2.5" H x 1.31" D. Weight: 3.3 oz including battery and belt clip.
