i was concerned about the fm antenna in the cord, but it turned out to be an non-issue.
from www.amazon.com
the only issue i have with it it that the fm antenna is in the electrical cord and when i walk too close i get static from it.
from www.amazon.com
the power cord is detachable, which tells me it will run fine on batteries, but have not done that yet.
from www.amazon.com
sometimes you have to play with the power cord a little to hear the station you want (the power cord is the radio antenna).
from www.amazon.com
the only downside - the external antenna cord that seems to always float around behind the radio.

from www.amazon.com
the appearance is quite good, i like it(except the black power cord as a tail in the back, but it's necessary, or will waste many batteries!).
from www.amazon.com
had an emerson i really liked - but i think fm antenna in power cord broke and i couldn't fix - only 8 mos old.
from www.amazon.com
the only change i'd suggest is to allow for a 2nd set of batteries - instead of the ac cord - to power the unit during normal operation.

i live in la/orange county, have extended the power cord/antenna fully, and live in a wood-frame house.

from DaveTN from Knoxville, TN, www.circuitcity.com
the remote is a very nice and functional addition, and while it is an 'ir' remote seems to work quite well around the corner.the units antenna is apparently built into the power cord which makes it
from www.target.com
my only complaint is the radio station reception is not that great and only improves if you open up the outlet cord.
from www.vanns.com
the reception is perfect and you dont need to hang the cord just right to get it.
from www.crutchfield.com
my only complaint is on weaker stations you sometimes have to move the power cord around to get a good signal, i have several tool hooks hanging in just the right places to hang the cord,(its the

Sony ICF-C212

$24.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have a brand new 9v battery in the clock, yet whenever i turn remove the power cord from the outlet then replace it the clock gains or loses about 10 minutes.
from www.amazon.com
for a small product this clock radio comes with a heavy duty line cord which is more suitable for large appliances.
from www.amazon.com
cons: short power cord, no dimmer switch (bright at night).
from www.amazon.com
i am giving this product 4 stars only because i believe the fm antenna should be integrated into the ac cord.

from www.amazon.com
it comes with two alarms, and the sound is very nice as long as you keep the cord unraveled.
from www.amazon.com
we all get very good reception with the radio - i did read in the instructions that the electrical cord also serves as the antennae.

Sony SY-ICF-CD815

$52.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.target.com
decent stereo sound for a clock radio and has the option to plug in another audio component - includes the cord as well.
from Author "Ian Bradley M", www.target.com
you can attach many different mp3 players to it as long as it has an audio out, but sony goes further and even provides the cord for it.
from www.amazon.com
had i known the cord to connect my ipod to the player would be missing i would not have purchased the piece.
from www.amazon.com
i thought this unit would play mp3 formatted cds (it does not), but it only has an av input (short cord included).

the antenna because it is such a small cord is entirely unobtrusive while on an end table.
from www.amazon.com
i already have a ups, so i just got a long extension cord for that, but a battery backup would have made this unit perfect.

in my picture of the radio, i had it sitting within inches of a cordless handset.
from www.amazon.com
we keep it plugged in with the power cord but also have batteries in it ready to take it in the pickup or to our cellar.
from Marzolan, www.newegg.com
cons: non-removable adapter, adapter housing is quite warm to the touch, cord connection to radio sticks out from the back so you cant sit the device flush against a wall or the head of a bed, alarm

from www.amazon.com
the radio sounds just fine for a clock radio, the signal is fine and i like how the antenna is hidden in the cord so i don't have another random wire hanging around my night stand.
from www.amazon.com
it looks good in there except for the black cord.
from www.amazon.com
the line cord is supposed to serve as the antenna, but that just doesn't work well no matter how i orient the cord.
