Almost a good ProductReview Date: 2009-10-15 Rating: 2 out of 10The Radio Shark is almost a good product. It was easy to install and worked right out of the box. The software has a few minor glitches that are annoying but not fatal. The fatal flaw in this product is the radio reciever itself. I live in the San Antonio area and can only pick up one station with enough clarity to record. On any other radio I own there are a dozen stations that come in very clear. Fornutaly for me the one station I can recieve is the one I wanted to record so the product is working for me.

ReviewsAwful ReceptionReview Date: 2009-09-13 Rating: 2 out of 10In comparison with radios located at the identical spot in my house, this radio gets truly awful AM reception. The manufacturer sells an extra antenna, but the reviews are not good. My Radioshark was non-returnable. So I threw it away as useless. Avoid this product, of course, and if this one is so bad, probably any others by this company. (Note: I bought it for recording sports on AM; I did not have a reason to try the FM. But generally FM antennas need to be bigger than AM, and the AM doesn't work, so...)I LOVE IT!Review Date: 2009-06-18 Rating: 10 out of 10I almost didn't buy it because of these bad reception reviews... I'm glad I did. I now listen to my favorite talk shows when I have time to listen to them and I skip the commercials. TiVo for Radio!Very week receptionReview Date: 2009-05-22 Rating: 2 out of 10Unfortunately Radio Shark has problems picking up only but the strongest signals. They do not provide hookup for external antenna either that could improve some station reception slightly. Even in the open, it picks up very few stations. The interface needs some work as well. Having no problems here...Review Date: 2008-12-28 Rating: 8 out of 10Yes, at first I was having reception problems but as I read here and elsewhere either get an antenna or (the free way), simply plug in those earbuds (had a junkie pair in the drawer), into the 1/8" antenna jack and viola, I had great reception!
Got this at an incredible "used and new" price here too...was too cheap not to buy myself a little Xmas present!
Cheers!
