FM leaves much to be desired. It does have RDS though. The Sangean PR-D5 is a battery hog. Have plenty on spare cells on hand If you are not using the AC adapter. from Amazon.com The Sangean PR-D5 is an excellent stereo radio with an electronic Radio Data System feature that permits automatic clock setting by tuning in to stations equipped with this feature. Like a Bose, it has a 3.5mm stereo auxiliary-in audio jack (for a CD Walkman, tape deck, or computer), a full-range and mellow tone with excellent bass and treble, but it works on batteries (not included) or an automobile accessory plug (not included) as well as AC power with the included adapter. from Amazon.com turn a corner I was in danger of losing the signal and missing part of what was being talked about. I have now had this new PR-D5 about a week and the first thing I noticed was the reception was great. from Amazon.com All I was looking for was a basic, AM/FM radio with a good, clean sound. This is it! from Amazon.com The Sangean PR-D5 was recommended to me by a person with expertise in radios with unusually good reception in the AM and FM bands and I found its performance to be outstanding. I bought it as a gift for a person with cerebral palsy in a specialty care center who was unable to pick up the FM station in his area that carried his favorite baseball team and the PR-D5 pulled it in loud and clear. from Amazon.com I ve owned hundreds of radios over the years. This gem from Sangean has to be the best of it's type. A decent sized AM FM radio with stereo,digital tuning, a line in jack and incredible reception on both AM and FM, and a $73 price yet to boot, plus the RDS information,as a nice bonus. from Amazon.com The radio is sleek, sounds nice--both AM and FM (no static), and is light enough to carry from room to room. It is easy to program stations. from Amazon.com I purchased this radio based on great reviews primarily for am listening. Although the radio seems well made, attractive, and user friendly, it did not get great reception on am or fm. from Amazon.com This is like the other Sangean I have, which we love, but instead of +/- audio volume the volume is set by a turn-knob on the side. I found that inconvenient and sloppy, as I use the radio behind and above me in the office -- hard to reach and tend to turn the tuning knob. from Amazon.com I took it home, attached the external FM antenna and it was not even as good as my old beat up radio at getting my NPR station from another town (FM). I took it back and went to do more research. This Sangean radio was highly regarded for distant reception and seemed to be a good deal. I went for it at the same price as the Tivoli I had just returned. from Amazon.com
