Plus it holds the station much better than other radios I've bought. I like to take walks and listen to Air America talk radio, and over the years have bought a lot of these little radios to use when walking, and so I expected this one to be so-so like the rest, but good enough. I was surprised to find I can listen to FM music and it is quality like my stereo system at home. So now I listen to music while I walk more than politics. Very good quality especially at this price - thank you, Sony.
I use it at work to listen to talk radio during the morning. Love it, works great. I did not want a I pod, etc, just wanted to listen to my shows on regular FM radio with my ear phones. Perfect for my use.Deb
Sony invented the Walkman and probably changed a lot with the way we listen to our music.The Sony SRF 59 FM/AM Walkman Radio is a basic small, lightweight radio which has a belt clip and whose headphones are the comfortable over the head and ears type.It has enough power to pick up FM and AM stations easily. The sound is clear and not distorted.I bought this radio for my wife to use at the gym. She can use it to listen to the TV while on a treadmill. For $15 it's a great buy.
This radio is an excellent performer and at less than $15, it is a steal. It is an excellent radio for running; lightweight with very good reception and the analog tuner holds the station quite well.
This radio does not hold the station and it's hard to dial in precisely too. I've only had it for about a month and it's just too frustrating to take on a walk. I end up spending a lot of time nudging the dial back and forth to get on the station. I also get a lot of static and high pitched squealing compared to other portable radios I've owned. I'm back now, upgrading to a better radio. I shouldn't have been so cheap the first go around.
