My new favorite portable radio

Sure, it costs a lot more (4x) than the smallest available iterations from Sony and Panasonic but it's well worth the extra cash for two reasons:

1. It picks up AM way better than anything in its size/weight class, both in terms of the number of stations and, equally important, the strength and clarity of the signals.

2. Its size — 3.5" x 2" x 0.6" (measured by me) and weight — 2.05 oz. on my postal scale.

Note that there's no speaker: you have to use earphones (enclosed).

Its form factor is remarkably similar to that of the long defunct iPod mini.

Finally, I can listen without static as Larry, Sonny and Sam call the woeful Redskins' games.

A digression: Can you believe this is Sonny and Sam's 31st season calling the games on Redskins radio?

The radio costs $40.77.
