I have been looking for a portable HD radio for quite some time. I found a JVC model in the store, however it required a special antenna and did not stock it. After returning the JVC unit I found this model on line and purchased it. It uses the head phone cable as an antenna just like portable FM radios do. The reception is good I live 60 miles from Houston and can pick up a couple of HD Stations. It does receive standard FM radio if no HD is available.
What's great about it: No external antenna required
