Another HD Radio hoax. Unlike $10 analog pocket-radios, battery life and reception are poor on this portable HD radio. $50 bucks and it doesn't even include an MP3 player. Analog radios fade gracefully, while this one drops signals to silence, when out of range - just like the digital TV transition hoax. Also, hard to tune. I'll be returning this radio. Audio quality is worse than analog radio - sounds tinny.
What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: poor battery life and reception. Too expensive for just another radio
